I think Retsina was a brilliant invention myself. It’s the first chemical anti-theft device. The Greeks obviously put pine tar in their wine so that the Turks wouldn’t steal the wine. It’s just brilliant in it’s simplicity.

My grandparents always maintained that was the story...and the fact that no Turk will drink Retsina lends it credibility.
