"Greek Wine:keep calm. drink up"

"Greek Wine:  keep calm. drink up"  

by Victoria Moore in The Telegraph

"Healthier exports will ensure that the economic crisis doesn’t end in tragedy for the beleaguered winemakers of Greece."

This is a thoughtful and more personal look at the Greek economic crisis through the lens of the Greek Wine industry.   And some fine Greek wine recommendations to boot.  I love the description of the Malagousia variety as  "Think albarino meets greco di tufo."  I toast to a day when a more broad wine drinking public will find either Albarino or Greco di Tufo to be easy reference points.  If this is already the case in the UK, hats off to you!
