Santorini Assyrtiko

Last night's wine was the 2018 Domaine Sigalas Santorini Assyrtiko.

On the nose there is lemon, mango, beeswax, saline and wet stone. The mineral notes are very prominent.

On the palate I find lemon, lime, passionfruit, ginger, a good portion of saline, flint rock and there is that continued minerals.

This wine is light to medium bodied that is cleean and fresh with high acidity which has a long citrus mineral finish. Let's have a great Easter weekend. Please be safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Clear pale lemon with medium aromas of floral, citrus and yeasty notes. On the palate flavors of apricot, lemon and ripe pear with flinty wet stone notes. Generous acidity ends with toasty vanilla character. Nice. Tasting Sample.

Citrus, white fruits, beeswax, sea salt, and slate

Some funky reduction on the nose, waxy & floral blowing away to leave salt marsh. Relatively dense for a white wine. Saline minerality, citrus pith, prominent acidity.

Lovely depth & island character. Waxy, oxidative, mineral, medium acidity.

Loved this light but with scent of citrus. Less minerality than other assyrtikos but still good on a hot day.
