Ripe, Mineral & Vibrant

Aromas of ripe lemon, white peach & citrus zest. Flavors of lemon & stone fruit.

Usually a dry, full bodied wine with pronounced vibrant acidity & stoney minerality.

Sometimes referred to as a “white grape in red’s clothing,” due to its full body.

Must be at least 75% Assyrtiko with the remaining 25%, Athiri and/or Aidani, both local grapes. Ages really well.

Generally unoaked, but some wineries also make an oaked style, which smooths the texture and adds some baking spice flavor.

A great food pairing wine!

It's from...

Santorini region, archipelago of Santorini, Southern Cyclades Islands, Greece

Some of Greece’s most compelling whites, and great for aging with 2017, 2019 and 2022 as particularly ageworthy.
