Wine Art Estate — Idisma Drios Chardonnay 2021

Idisma Drios 2021, Wine Art Estate (PGI Drama) — Tasted as part of an exploration of renowned Greek Chardonnays, this 100% Chardonnay from Drama in northern Greece shows an evident touch of wood, but it's not a fat wine. If you have a penchant for oak undertones, this Greek delight is tailored for you. It stood out in a lineup that included the Marmarias 2019 from Ktima Tselepos (PGI Arcadia) and the Palpo 2022 from Kir-Yianni, holding its own comfortably among serious Greek Chardonnays. At 13.7% alcohol, it keeps things balanced and poised. It stands tall with 91 points, and at around 15€ it represents really good value.
