Kyrenia is one of those Greek whites that immediately reminds you Mediterranean wine doesn’t need loads of oak, alcohol or drama to be interesting. Produced by Tetramythos in the northern Peloponnese, the wine focuses on Roditis, a native pink-skinned Greek grape that somehow still remains weirdly underrated outside Greece.

The vineyards sit high up in the mountains above the Gulf of Corinth, with sea breezes keeping everything cool and fresh despite all the sunshine. That combination gives the wine this lovely mix of citrus, herbs, salty minerality and soft orchard fruit without becoming heavy or tropical.

There’s also a slightly savoury edge running through it that makes the whole thing ridiculously food-friendly. Seafood, grilled vegetables, salty cheeses, olive oil everywhere. Basically built for long lunches that accidentally become evening plans.

The winemaking stays very low-intervention too, so the wine keeps loads of natural texture and energy without becoming cloudy farmhouse chaos.

Greek white wine has become massively exciting over the last few years, and bottles like Kyrenia are a big reason why people keep falling down that rabbit hole.
