Product Notes

Akrathos Assyrtiko is an elegantly structured Greek wine, heralding from Halkidiki. This white wine boasts a radiant, crystal clear golden hue with a captivating bouquet of fresh citrus, aromatic herbs, and pronounced minerality. Impeccably balanced on the palate, it unfolds gracefully, offering lively acidity and an impressive depth of flavour. Undertones of ripe apple, honeydew, and wildflowers complement the pronounced mineral notes. This unique expression of the lively Assyrtiko variety, with hints of sea saltiness will tempt your senses. An excellent bottle to pair with delicate fish dishes or to simply indulge in its own right. A testimony to Greek wine craftsmanship.

Tasting Notes

A crisp and uplifting Assyrtiko, with complex notes of lime, citrus blossom and peach, highlighted by mineral overtones. Generously textured, with lovely balance and a long, lemony finish.
