Matamis Spumante charilys rose 20NV

Here's a lovely sparkling rosé wine from Greece — Matamis Spumante Charilys's blend of Assyrtiko and Syrah, and it's a non-vintage bottling. About the grape — Assyrtiko is Greece's noblest white grape, native to Santorini, producing bone-dry, mineral-driven wines with searing acidity and citrus, saline and stone-fruit character. It's joined by Syrah — a bold red grape producing dark, full-bodied wines with blackberry, black-pepper and smoky, savory notes; it is known as Shiraz in Australia. Greece has been making wine for thousands of years, and its sun-drenched hills and breezy islands grow native grapes you simply won't find anywhere else. Crack it open as a celebration starter — it loves shellfish, salty nibbles and fried bites. Serve it ice-cold.
