Encounters With Wines On Crete.

The Delight Of Encountering A New Surprising Wine And Enjoying It With Diverse Meals The Combination of Taverna Kritiko & Cretan Wines Shop Prologue: Kiti had a special desire to enjoy mussels, and especially in Taverna Kritiko, Kalyves. The taverna is very stylishly built inside stony rooms with a view to the sea. Really cozy! The Last Chance To Enjoy Mussels & etc became our enjoyment. We were in the taverna on its closing evening (opening again sometime in mid-April) with diverse expectations. Kiti's mussels were a must, Lassi & I had a keen eye on rabbit, and Silja went the vegetarian way to stuffed tomatoes and leaves. One Might Imagine that the diversity of courses wouldn't fit one wine? But One Might Be Wrong and to be proven wrong, happily. - Kiti had a field-day with her mussels, Lassi & I with a bit differently made rabbits, and Silja with her vegetarian meal. We all enjoyed the food. But between bites we also commented favourably about the wine. No discrepancy with mouthfulls of eats, just a very good, and broad-scoped wine to be sipped while dining your own course! So the obvious result of such an enjoyable taverna experience was a shopping trip to Cretan Wines, Kalyves, to enjoy ENOTRIA again at home, with a rabbit stifado made by Kiti. - We've just had that enjoyment! If a wine with the best price/quality ratio should be mentioned, previously I would have been at a loss of words, but now the answer is simple: ENOTRIA red - an excellent organic wine with a very good texture and balance. When served at the taverna for a list price of 16 EUR, I thought Enotria would cost the customary half in the shop, and considered that to be a bargain. So 4,10 EUR as the retail price was more than a pleasant surprise!
