"The NV Brut “Ode Panos” is a reliable sparkling Moschofilero coming in at just 11.5% alcohol. This has light toast, fine acidity and excellent balance, finishing succulent, juicy and refreshing. There is a subtle richness, but it is an elegant wine, best enjoyed on the younger side. Although a non-vintage bottling, it has a lot number printed on the black foil – L1041. Note that it is very hard to see, tiny and nearly submerged by the black color, requiring both good light and eyes. On my bottle it was aligned with the back label, not the front."

"This is just what you want for a dry white in the summer--elegant and refreshing, clean and crisp, marked by invigoratingly grassy aromatics. It just a bit of a nod to a Sauvignon Blanc. For all that, it shows some reasonable integration of those characteristics and seems quite harmonious, projecting a “pull up a chair and sit awhile” demeanor. You can just see sipping on this all through a summer night."
