Amygdalos Vineyards were the last hold out for the ancient Vidiano varietal and Iliana has helped revive it. This is the kind of wine you can only get from super old vines, a pure, spring-water-like aroma with the concentration and intensity of nothing but minerals in the form of phenolics (the flavor compound in the skins of grapes). A wine that wouldn't know fruit if it hit it on the head, you search for it, but all you get is soil and and key herbal characteristic, now indefinitely tied to the variety in my head.

Iliana isn’t just making soulful, thoughtful (and thoroughly delightful) wines on Crete, she’s helping revitalize an entire region. Around the medieval town of Rethymno, Iliana farms some vineyards herself (planted to grape varieties Vidiano, Liatiko, and Thrapsithiri), and contracts more from her neighbors. She has convinced them to farm organically — not so difficult on the hot, dry, and windy island — and has made it possible for these locals to hold onto their land, instead of selling it off to avaricious real estate developers.
