| 75 | | | 91 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | As we move into warm weather, light white wines are what we crave for light foods. Think about Greece for some of these wines, especially those based on the native Greek varieties, such as this one. Moscofilero (mow-skow-FEE-lair-oh), sometimes spelled Moscophilero, is one of those grapes that makes a refreshing, zingy summer sipper. This one shows a slight spritziness and a pale yellow color, and opens with a fresh pear/melon scent. On the palate, a fruit-sweet melon/pear flavor gets additional interest and complexity from an almost chalky minerality. Clean with sweet fruit but a dry finish, this is a terrific aperitif and seafood wine. Foods: taramosalata; stuffed grape leaves; spanikopita, stuffed cocktail-size potatoes; crab cakes; shrimp or chicken with Thai green curry cream; goat cheese; baked oysters with cream and lemon; grilled Vidalia onion pork bratwurst; pan-fried crumbed catfish with tartar sauce; crab-stuffed flounder; grilled or crumbed fried scallops; calamari with lemon aïoli; chicken or fish piccatta, with lemon and capers.
