I was very shocked and sorry to learn last evening that the inspirational winemaker Haridimos Hatzidakis, based in in Santorini making wonderful wines – world class Assyrtiko, had died suddenly yesterday.

I will treasure the couple of visits that I made to Hatzidakis winery on the Greek island of Santorini. My sincere condolences to Haridimos' family and close friends. The cause of Haridimos' death is as yet unknown.
