Santorini, Aegean, Greece
My first bottle of this wine and it really delivered. medium-bodied, saline and sweet spice. Even better as it gets to room temperature.

Yum all the way. Modern and rich. Maybe the best Greek wine I’ve had in quite some time

Sep 14th, 2020Wtf? This is amazing. Almost marsanne like.. super dark yellow gold that actually becomes lighter with air (Wierd but maybe it’s just my perception because the fruit goes from rich to lean with air as well) with aromas of dried almond, quince, apricot and wet hay. It needs time to open up and while it may be a ‘fat’ for my taste, there is a never ending mineral component to keep it fresh in intriguing. A benchmark wine for sure! Drink now through next decade

Jan 7th, 2020Golden yellow, creamy texture from lees aging and skin contact, lemon curd and grapefruit, apricot, oyster shell and smoke. Plenty of heft and power, could develop more

Richer than expected, a mouthful of lemon and lots of citrus. Need more.

The one that made me fall for assyrtiko, as good as I remember. Acid, fruit and minerality for days! Organic. Indigenous yeast. 8 mos on lees in tank. More, please.

Medium gold color. Nose of wax, brown sugar, flowers. On the palate there is not much acidity, flavors of oxidized apples, exotic fruit, flowers, wax, and butter. Shows some evolution but in the same time great depth. A wine to pair with a meal instead of taking it by itself? Very good (89)
Made of Assyrtiko and aged 6 months in stainless tanks. Alcohol level of 14,5%

2012 vintage. Bit ripe and peachy. Oxidation notes. Bit good acidity and lots of minerality - wet rocks in abundance. Medium finish.
