Description
In a nutshell:
This super Greek white packs a zesty punch with a hint of salty sea air.
The lowdown:
This Greek white is remarkably bright, even with the warm Mediterranean sun in its bones. The vineyards sit on limestone near the Aegean, the influence of the sea a clear note in its salty, crisp flavour profile. Made entirely with Assyrtiko grapes, it delivers a burst of citrus - think lime and wild orange - with softer hints of white flowers. Fermented in stainless steel, there's no oak to soften its zesty tang. Instead, you get a wine of pure, mineral-driven acidity and refreshing character.
The Producer:
Domaine Papagiannakos is a historic estate with a deep connection to the Attica region. Founded in 1919 near Athens, the winery draws on a rich heritage. Vassilis Papagiannakos carries the torch for this third-generation family estate, championing indigenous varieties like Savatiano and Malagouzia. His focus lies with the expressiveness of old vines farmed thoughtfully in the region's unique terroir. Tradition remains vital at Domaine Papagiannakos, yet the estate embraces innovation with a focus on sustainability in its modern winery.
When to drink:
This bright, zesty wine is a delicious accompaniment to fish, light poultry dishes, and vibrant salads.
Suitable for Vegans
