Assyrtiko – White wine – Xanthi
Vinification process: Pre-fermentation cryoextraction at low temperature and fermentation in open 225 litre oak barrels with native yeasts, long fermentation at controlled temperature. Aging is continued on fine lees for 6 months in French oak barrels. It is not filtered and does not undergo any treatment before bottling.
Golden color with green highlights, discreet presence of barrel with delicate aromas of vanilla and butter, intense and complex bouquet of citrus fruits, quince, honeycomb, while as it matures it releases flowers and yellow fruits. Exuberant mouth, fruit and barrel in harmony, with perfect flavor balance and very good acidity, oiliness and persistent length.
About twenty minutes before enjoying the Fine Assyrtiko we recommend decanting into a wide carafe, the difference will pleasantly surprise you…!
