WHAT WINE TO CHOOSE FROM ?

Whatever red is of your preference would be fine with the sausage stroganoff, yet if you got tired from the same old Cabernets, Merlots & Syrah, you are adventurus enough and willing to explore some "old-new world" wines you may try an indigenous Xinomavro (P.D.O. Rapsani & Naoussa) - either as single varietal or blended with other local grapes of Greece and you will discover a whole new world of tastes & fragrances.
