Origin

Assyrtico is a traditional Greek white wine grape variety predominantly cultivated in Santorini and other Aegean islands. The Sokos brand sources its Assyrtico from Greece, reflecting the authentic terroir of the region.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from the Assyrtico grape variety, known for its high acidity and mineral character.

Production

The Assyrtico grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure quality. The winemaking process involves controlled fermentation at low temperatures to preserve the fresh and crisp characteristics of the grape. The wine is typically aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain its purity and vibrant acidity.
