The wine region of Cyclades
Greek IGP of the Cycladic islands in the Aegean (dark volcanic soils, meltemi winds, hydro-stress, kouloura bush-trained vines on Santorini, >30 m depth): Assyrtiko as world-class signature white — sharp acidity and intense volcanic salinity, candied citrus, white flowers and iodine notes, textured body preserved in the dry climate. Aidani and Athiri as delicate complements. Vinsanto as golden passito. Two major PDOs (Santorini and Paros), IGP 2008.
The wine region of Aegean Sea
West Turkish coastal region (Izmir, Manisa, Denizli, Aydin), ~53% of national production, sunny Mediterranean climate. Sultaniye: light and fresh with citrus, apple, melon. Bornova Misketi: aromatic and floral (rose, honey). Reds: Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah dense and sunny (blackcurrant, blackberry, pepper, garrigue, firm tannins) — international varieties that ripen perfectly here.
The word of the wine: Aromatic
Character of a wine that is particularly expressive and rich in aromas. Some grape varieties, such as Gewurztraminer or Muscat, produce very aromatic wines.
