Vatistas Vineyards "Assyrtiko" Peloponnese Assyrtiko 2006 (750ML)You check into a pristine, white-washed, beachside hotel on the Greek, festooned with bougainvillea on the peninsula of Peloponnese. You enter your gorgeous, airy room, throw open the glass doors of your private balcony overlooking the sea, and feel a warm, salty, lilting Mediterranean breeze blowing all around you. On a little café table, sits a just-chilled bottle of Assyrtiko-Greece's go-to refreshing white varietal, which you pop open and pour, and just as you bring the glass to your lips … the garbled announcer on the A train interrupts your Greek isle fantasy. So, okay, you're not vacationing in the Greek islands as this moment, but you can have the Assyrtiko. Our pick: Vatistas's fresh, citrusy, straw-colored sipper. -- PJ Code: W-00004872
