Summer
Refreshment
ersonally, I like to start with bubbles. And while
my cellar is stocked with Cava and Prosecco, I
do run out of ideas for things to serve
with those thirst-quenching
bubbles. Joyce Goldstein,
the doyenne of all
things Mediterranean,
happened to be in
New York recently,
and when we caught
up we began talking
about tapas, mezes
and crostini. She’s got a
new book coming out this
fall, on the history of what
has become California cuisine,
a style of cooking which itself has
roots in the Mediterranean. For this issue,
Goldstein developed a series of recipes that
show off the local taste for salt, crunch and
bubbles in places such as Catalonia, Venice
and Southern France.
For crisp, thirst-quenching whites, check
out the new old-vine wines from California.
David Darlington, whose writing on zin has
taken him to many of the state’s most deeply
rooted vineyards, discovered some throwback
whites among the reds, vines a generation
of thirty-something winemakers are turning
into a trend: Chenin blanc, colombard,
trousseau gris and other once
widely planted grapes are
suddenly cool again.
If you’re pouring
something red, Tara Q.
Thomas discovered
several delicate wines
among the more robust
takes on Naoussa,
Greece’s long-lived
answer to Barolo. Her
report on the region’s
contemporary masters appears
on page 26. And if you’re planning
your own trip to Greece this summer,
sommelier-turned-journalist Maria Dimou
provides a guide to the new wine bar scene
in Athens, the spots where the city’s wine
cognoscenti meet.
Whether you’re traveling to Greece, or
bringing the Mediterranean home in a bottle of
Santorini, friulano or Provençale rosé—or the
Atlantic, in a bottle of alvarinho—we’ve got you
covered.
