Assyrtiko "Sarakiniko" 2025

The Assyrtiko "Sarakiniko" is produced in Greece, specifically from the volcanic island of Santorini, known for its unique terroir and volcanic soil which imparts distinctive characteristics to the wine.

This wine is made exclusively from the Assyrtiko grape variety, a native Greek white grape renowned for its high acidity and mineral profile.

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation at low temperatures to preserve the fresh and mineral qualities of the Assyrtiko grape. The wine is typically aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain its crispness and clarity without oak influence.

• Appearance: Pale straw yellow with greenish hues.
• Aroma: Intense citrus notes with hints of green apple, white flowers, and a pronounced mineral character.
• Palate: Crisp and refreshing acidity balanced with a saline minerality, medium-bodied with a clean, lingering finish.

Assyrtiko "Sarakiniko" pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, particularly those emphasizing fresh and light flavors:

• Seafood such as grilled fish, octopus, and shellfish
• Light salads with citrus or herb dressings
• White meats like chicken or turkey prepared simply
• Greek specialties including feta cheese and tzatziki
• Vegetable dishes and light pasta with olive oil-based sauces
