Greek Wine

Nice article here from the LA Times on Greek wines. I frickin' LOVE Greek wine. I'll admit, though, that I'm also a big fan of the retsina, derided in this article as "medicinal, resin-tinged Retsina, one of the more archaic, not to say weird, modern evocations of ancient tradition."

For some reason, it reminds me of Bill Murray in "Stripes," saying, "Maybe I shouldn't have drank all that cough syrup this morning."

But retsina is nothing like cough syrup!
