Moraitis Malagousia 2010

As I mentioned on my last post we were going to taste the new vintage of Moraitis Malagousia 2010. We did, and it was delicious!!!. Citrus slightly mango on the nose and beautifully soft, round and fruity on the palate.
Malagousia is one of Greece's indigenous grape varieties that has made a come back in recent years .
The Moraitis winery is on the beautiful cycladic island of Paros, well worth a visit as it is situated on the outskirts of one of the prettiest and most picturesque fishing villages in Greece, Nouassa. It quite honestly could be a film set , its so perfect.
The weather the last few days have been lovely, about 25 c whilst northern europe is freezing.
Warm enough for lunch outside , which is just what we did today . I had a meeting in central Athens , so we had lunch , greek salad, in a restaurant in the park that is adjacent to the houses of parliament.
