| Speaking of Assyrtiko, Jeanne Thexton said the following: \"This unique Greek grape is rising from relative obscurity, with an insider cult following, to achieve a resonant new voice in the wine world.\" (Decanter, Jan. 12, 2016) TASTING NOTE: Here's a modern, robust and alluring Assyrtiko with intense green apple and citrus underscored by a nice mineral note. Brilliant acidity keeps things snappy. It'll match well with seafood. (Vintages panel, March 2018) |
