Recommended wine: Moschofilero, Assyrtiko, Agiorgitiko

Moschofilero, Assyrtiko, and Agiorgitiko are my top picks for Greek. If you feel like going Greek with your Greek food, assyrtiko and moschofilero are both lovely white wines to pair with chicken, seafood, etc. Agiorgitiko is a full bodied red suitable for roasted meats and lamb. You could try Gaia Monograph Moschofilero. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.

The grapes for the Monograph Moschofilero come from vineyards located in the Arcadianplateaus in the Mantinia region of Peloponnese, at an altitude of 1,500ft. In this cool climate,the pink-skinned Moschofilero thrives, developing intense, spicy and floral aromatics andcrisp acidity.This lively, dry white wine has an intensely floral and fruity nose, with hints of rose petaland spice. A refreshing wine, with a crisp acidity and flavorful finish.Playing off its charactistically floral bouquet, this wine is a great pairing for seafood, MiddleEastern and Asian cuisine, or paired with fresh fruit or fruit-based desserts.
