Assyrtiko
MED-BODIED, CITRUS, WHITE PEACH, WHITE FLOWER, MINERAL, HERBAL, HONEY, NO OAK
Staff favorite! This beautiful, well-balanced single-vineyard Assyrtiko (grown just 3km from the Aegean Sea) has high acidity, intense minerality, lemon zest, fleshy white peach, and a long finish… Although ultimately refreshing and zippy, it is a solidly medium-bodied white with some nice texture and weight, allowing for substantial ageing potential.
WINEMAKING : Single vineyard; super small yields from 60 year-old vines; wild fermentation; fermented & aged in stainless on the lees for 6 months
FARMING : Practicing Organic (Conversion)
PAIRING : Pan Fried Halloumi with Honey (but shines with or without food!)

Xinomavro
MEDIUM-FULL BODIED, BLUE/BLACK FRUITS, MEDIUM TANNIN, SPICE, OAK
Greece’s answer to Italian nebbiolo! Medium tannins here are balanced well by refreshing acidity, and dark fruit with floral accents on the nose and palate. Oak aging brings hints of vanilla and spice.
