CrushCast Episode 74: It's All Greek To Me: Assyrtiko

Crush It Wine Education Season 1 Episode 74

In our final episode as CrushCast, we wanted to bring you all a long awaited episode all about Greece and the underestimated variety Assyrtiko. 

As always we bring you a stellar example of our featured wine, this one is all the way from Attica region of Central Greece. Right in time for spring this mineral-driven white is perfect for Spring and a killer pairing for light seafood and Greek fare. 

Julie takes you to the Greek with a litlle history and Allie finishes the pod with an homage to Assirtiko, Santorini and its ability to survive the centuries. 

Grab a glass and join us! Cheers! 

PS. Not to worry! We will be back with an entire new podcast series next week.
