Vinsanto de Santorin

white · Assyrtiko · Santorin · Grèce — 10–12°C

Santorini Vinsanto (80% Assyrtiko sun-dried on Greek straw mats for 2 weeks to concentrate sugar, oxidative ageing minimum 4 years in oak barrel under the Aegean sun) — raisin, honey, candied apricot and dried fruits form the natural regional pairing for Greek baklava; geographic proximity to mainland Greece, dried-fruit edge echoing chopped walnuts-pistachios-almonds, honey doubling that soaking the filo pastry.

Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise

white · Muscat à petits grains · Rhône Sud · France — 8–10°C

Sweet French Muscat accompanies the honey and pistachio of baklava with roundness.

Mavrodaphne de Patras

red · Mavrodaphne · Patras · Grèce — 14–16°C

This Greek fortified red made from Mavrodaphne wraps around the baklava's walnuts and honey with candied fig and nutty notes, creating a direct cultural bridge with the Levantine pastry.
