My recollection is that "Greek wine" is a term used in English medieval
cooking for a sweet wine.

Okay, I just checked.  In the glossary to "Curye On Inglysch" it says that
"wyne greke" was a term for a kind of sweet wine, that actually came from
Italy, not Greece.  I'd be inclined to use something like a sweet sherry.
