‘Drink this: you’ll love it’!

I’m not saying this to you, but I heard it for many, many years (and I still do, whenever we meet)… So, let’s take it from the beginning… (as much as we can, since the delight of emotions is—whatever way you do it—their disorder). I don’t know much about wine, so my relationship with it […]

Architectοwine – Manolis Leonardos

I often believe that everything is interconnected. Almost everything maybe, except for the flight of a butterfly in the Amazon and a rainstorm in China. I think that’s taking it a bit far, but it’s certainly poetically graphic enough to give us a quasi-scientific taste of chaos theory. Alas… 30 years ago. The architect would […]

The ten ‘commandments’

Thanks to my everyday involvement with the world of wine, I have come to realise that for the average consumer, wine seems quite impenetrable. And so I have been given the opportunity, through the Strofilia blog, to express some thoughts that could be useful to those who love wine, but also to those who are […]

ONE SIP, A THOUSAND WORDS

Like all children, I was taught at a young age that wine is made from grapes. I thought that this could only be the result of magic, and it turns out that I wasn’t really wrong about that. In fact, it is the truth, as I realised when I started my studies. I’m a graduate […]

Knowledge of wine matters, but way less than you think.

Knowledge of wine matters, but way less than you think.

Yes, you read that right, that is the title, and—even if it isn’t mine—I completely agree with it. And so, as the Strofilia blog is read not only by consumers but also by professionals, I believe that a Greek translation of Ben Salisbury’s article offers a great opportunity to learn how the wine market works. […]

50 shades of Gris – Panayiotis Barbarigos

The 50 shades of Gris! …or depending on the wine you fancy, the 50 shades of red, yellow or pink! This article starts off with an inevitable erotic mood, towards wine and the reader! The meaning of erotic in Ancient Greece, however was slightly different than what we currently describe as such. The great philosopher […]

Strofilia, our name for Roger Federer

One of the great truths of this life is that when you’re caught up in the whirlwind of events it isn’t easy to grasp the bigger picture. As a result, many comparisons are thought to be absurd, simply because some people don’t realise that even if the things compared are not alike, they nonetheless have […]

The Odyssey of a Bottle

The relentless sun heats the small golden specks of sand, the beach, and the hearts of two boys at play. Lilliputian castles rise up, along with joy and shouts, until they have to bid each other farewell and everyone goes their own way. The two little boys go way of autumn studies—and much more—but what […]
