Pale lemon with medium aromas of floral, citrus notes. On the palate flavors of lemon and ripe pear with flinty wet stone notes. Generous acidity ends with citrus mineral character. Nice. Tasting Sample.

A vibrant, mineral-driven white that truly channels the volcanic soul of Santorini. Made from 100% Assyrtiko, this wine delivers all the tension, brightness, and texture that have made the island legendary among white wine lovers.
On the nose:
Lively citrus , lemon, lime, grapefruit wrapped around subtle notes of dried apple, pear, quince, and a delicate floral lift.
On the palate:
Crisp acidity and focused structure define the experience. The mid-palate is clean and direct, leading to a short yet precise finish, marked by an unmistakable saline edge and crushed stone minerality that echoes wet pebbles, oyster shells, and volcanic ash.
Mouthfeel:
Medium-plus dry, with a medium to full body and a lingering impression of sea breeze and stone.
A truly refreshing summer white that punches well above its price point. Perfect with oysters, shellfish, grilled octopus, or simply on its own with a sea view (or dreaming of one).
Cheers to Santorini in a glass! 🐚🍋🌊
