| 75 | | | 87 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Celebrate Greek Easter with a wine from one of America’s Greek heritage wineries, such as Lolonis, which also is dedicated to organic farming methods. The ladybug, which it uses to control pests, is its symbol. This white wine with just a notch of residual sugar blends several grape types: French Colombard; Chenin Blanc; Sémillon and Chardonnay. Tilting to floral, the delicate, aromatic aromas show citrus peel notes. Fresh, clean, apple/pear/citrus fruit informs the palate, which finishes with a pleasing crispness. It’s a good crowd pleaser for beginning a meal. Co-fermented in stainless steel, so all the fruit is kept fresh and unmuddled. This is a simple, easy quaffing wine that should appeal to a wide range of palates. Don’t let it get too cold, or you’ll kill the delicate flavors: 55-60ºF/13-15ºC. Use medium-sized tulip-shaped glasses. Foods: baked fish dishes; calamari with lemon aïoli; lemon chicken; deep-fried chicken tenders with honey mustard; skordalia (garlic/potato purée) with deep-fried cod fish (very traditional); assorted savory phyllo pastries
