Yep, it's Greek. And no, we don't know anything about Greek wines (except for what we've heard about retsina) or about this varietal, Moschofilero. But every once in a while we like to try something out of the blue--how else can you make happy discoveries?Well, this Boutari Moschofilero wasn't exactly an unhappy discovery, but we weren't thrilled, either. It had a flinty nose--Margaret Anne put it down as "wet rock," although Ed found at least a touch of citrus in it. The flavor, too, was more on the grassy side of things than the fruity.
Not a bad wine, by any means, but probably not one we'll rush out to buy again.
