Crunchy acid. Myer Lemon and lemon marmalade flavors. It has medium body and is more of a gastronomical white than an easy sipper. #assyrtiko

Popped and poured. The wine pours a straw color with a medium viscosity. No signs of particles or gas. On the nose, the wine displays fresh lemon, wax, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. The finish is long and accompanied by the familiar saline minerals. Probably better with food but works well with a warm sunset on Milos.

Beautiful Assyrtiko with smooth mouthfeel and clean vanilla flavor. A great version of Assyrtiko perfect with Lavraki.
