The wine region of Santorini
Mythical volcanic PDO of the Cyclades (Greece): signature Assyrtiko as king white (>=85%, complemented by Aidani and Athiri) — pale robe and signature direct mineral-saline profile mirroring the volcanic terroir — lively notes of citrus, lemon, grapefruit, white fruits and an iodine touch, sharp acidity at low pH and chiselled structure. Centenary vines in kouloura (basket shielding from wind), phylloxera-free island, intense sun, violent wind, minimal rain.
The word of the wine: Confit
Said of red wines that offer a very ripe nose of red and black fruits reminiscent of jam. On the palate, these aromas are dominant, the wine is very fleshy and round, and leaves an impression of sweetness on the finish that weighs it down.
