"Grown in Greece's coldest region, this 100% Assyrtiko from the renowned Kir-Yianni estate offers the purest expression of the grape variety!"
"The Kir-Yianni 2023 Assyrtiko The North High Altitude Wine has fresh lines and crisp citrus flavors. Beyond these notes of lemon peel and sweet peach, there are lovely mineral notes reminiscent of crushed oyster shells. I love the mineral sparkle of this easy-drinking white wine. On the palate, this cool-climate Assyrtiko has a lively and linear entry. 2024-2028" (Wine Advocate 2024) - Screw cap

About wine:
Very clean, silky, sunny, completely different from a Santorini in that it is soft and generous, full of citrus flavors, broad in texture, although there is a little salinity and, of course, the firm acidity of this grape that keeps the whole thing upright and elegant. 2024-2027
