Tasted by:
(at Decanter's Greek Assyrtiko Expert's Choice tasting, 12 Apr 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2024
Organic vines, 12 hours skin contact, wild yeasts, 8 months on lees, unfiltered. Pushes boundaries with an oxidative sherry hint, but it works. Tight at first, densely packed; dried-apricot flavour, lemon-oil texture, tangy acidity and citrus-peel bitter twist.
