titleI admit I don't know too much about Greek wine, but I definitely love all the Mediterranean food, so it was a no brainer for me to sign up for Parker's Table monthly wine dinner.
I also knew I was in good hands when I saw my wine distributer friend, Matt!

The first course was called Poseidon's Salad since there were a few fish friends - octopus, calamari, and mussels included. The white wine paired with this was very light and crisp.

The second course was yogurt marinated chicken with olives and feta in a sumac sauce. For this course, it was paired with both a red and a white. The white had a little more body than the red!

The third course was Beef & Pork Meatballs on top of cous cous, which was paired with a bigger red Greek wine that was able to stand up to a meat dish! I was impressed! I usually think that Greek red wines are light like Pinot Noir, so I was pleasantly surprised.

Yet, the dessert course was my favorite because the Vanilla Yogurt Panna Cotta with pistachio crumble and apricot jam just melted in my mouth. I didn't even miss that there wasn't any chocolate on top! This was paired with a Pistachio Cream Liqueur, so delicious!
