Pale lemon color. Intense minerality on the nose complemented by aromas of stone fruits and citrus fruits -mostly peach and lemon-, and floral notes on the background. The rich palate is further enhanced by the vibrant acidity and a saline-forward character. Long aftertaste following the aromas of the nose.

The 2022 Santorini Assyrtiko, the flagship 100% Assyrtiko (usually producing around 100,000 bottles), is unoaked and comes in at 14.5% alcohol. Ripe and dense, this is a big wine on the palate, yet it is never overripe and it is sometimes stonewashed in demeanor. It shows good balance while it coats the palate, and it finishes with great fruit supported by impressive structure. The main flaw here is that this is underdeveloped and not yet fully expressive. That, of course, is something that will only be fixed by a couple of years in the bottle. It should hold well after that.
