Delicious. Reminds us of an old school Chablis with some Sancerre notes. This is specifically from Macedonia btw.

An Assyrtiko that drinks like a Sauvignon Blanc. Unripe peach. Lime. Very slight saltiness. @Jason Keefer I went back to Greece!

Beautiful mineral and saltiness on the palate with good fruit and acidity. Stands up well to a Greek salad and grilled shrimp.

Smoky, leesy, very mineral forward. Excellent example of barrel aged Assyrtiko.

Really great for lunch at a Greek restaurant. Saline, minerals, lemons, good acidity. Great with food.

It’s fun to keep finding this in the USA at random restaurants in Chicago. Feels more like a Sauvignon Blanc. But love this as it’s a great value and crowd pleaser.

Have not had an Assyrtiko in a long time, and this bottle serves to remind me how delightful Assyrtiko can be.
Refreshing and delicious. Lovely touch of saltiness and fresh cut grass. There is decent depth of flavor.
Assyrtiko from Santorini becomes more and more expensive now. This one from Naoussa Macedonia is still reasonably priced.
