Assyrtiko
Wine of Greece
Grapes: Assyrtiko. Style: Fresh and zingy. Taste: Honeysuckle and sherbet lemon notes. With: Fish, seafood and Greek salad.
A fresh and zingy white wine with delicate aromas of honeysuckle. Mouth-watering sherbet lemon notes lead to a savoury minerality and a lovely zesty acidity on the finish.
This wine is from Nemea where winemaking dates back to the 5th century BC. The vineyards are surrounded by mountains and the sea, both of which have a cooling effect on the grapes, enabling them to maintain their characteristic high acidity levels.
Assyrtiko's mouth-watering acidity lends itself to fish, seafood, and dishes with creamy feta cheese.
