Best Greek Wine Regions?

[knicks_fan87]

I'm on a quest to discover the finest vineyards Greece has to offer. With a winemaking history that spans over four millennia, it has a rich wine tradition even though a lot of people don't know much about it.

I'd love to hear from anyone who has explored Greek wine regions or from connoisseurs who have a particular fondness for Greek varieties. What regions should I place at the top of my list, and are there any specific vineyards or wines that are absolute must-trys?

From the famed Santorini Assyrtiko to the bold reds of Nemea, I'm eager to taste and learn about the exceptional flavors and story behind each bottle. Whether it's a little-known gem or an iconic estate, I'm all ears for your recommendations.

My wine experiences in Greece have been more random. I had fun visiting a few of the wineries on Crete. Other than that, I enjoy drinking the Greek wines that are put in front of me. Sometimes, that means someone made it at their farm house and brought it to their restaurant to serve. For me, wine in Greece is about the social side and sharing it with others. It's also delicious!
