Estate Argyros Santorini
Cuvee Monsignori Assyrtiko
Santorini, Aegean, Greece
Popped and poured, no formal notes. The “Cuvee Monsignori” is made with fruits from some of the estates oldest vines; many well over 200 years old and (obviously) ungrafted. Beautifully layered tropical fruits, lime, wax, and minerals. While this was hugely complex, the biggest takeaway was the incredible texture and finish of this wine. It was rich, leesy and saline. A stunning example of Assyrtiko and perfect pairing with whole red snapper.

The volcanic soil and 300 year old vines come through with the most fabulous minerality. Bright full flavored and refreshing. Going perfectly with our calamari and octopus appetizers.
