Wine Class Tomorrow! - Greek Wines

I've been talking to Adam Brumberg from VOS Selections...he will be our speaker tomorrow night for the class on Greek wines.  I can't wait!  He's not only a really nice guy, but is very knowledgeable about wines and especially the Greek wines in his portfolio.  This is going to be so much fun!
Ever heard of Assyrtiko?  or Agiorgitiko?  Xinomavro? Moschofilero?  These are all names of varietals indigenous to Greece.  Who knew, right?  There are so many amazing wines - reds and whites- being made in Greece.  The whites are crisp and delicious, and the reds range from light and fruity to big and dry.... and they all pair perfectly with a range of foods! 
Picture yourself on the Mediterranean, basking in the sun, looking out over the deep dark blue waters and snacking on seafood.... are you there?  Okay - all you need is one of these delicious wines to complete the fantasy!  If you haven't made a reservation for the class, you can still learn a little about Greek wines from VOS Selections.  Watch this cool video at http://www.youtube.com/user/VOSWINEVIDEOS, or go to http://www.allaboutgreekwine.com/varieties.htm
Cheers!
