"You can feel the ambition packed into this wine as soon as you lift the extra-thick bottle. Then you’ll smell it, in the pale, creamy, spicy scent of barrels. Sourced from a vineyard in Amyndeon planted in sandy clay at 1,755 feet of elevation, it lives up to its packaging, presenting assyrtiko in the style of Grand Cru Chablis. It’s rich, round and savory, the flavors presented in shades of beige—spice, earth, cream—with the variety’s inherent acidity pulling everything into a tailored, precise line. It holds that line for days after opening, the wine polished and powerful, designed to prove assyrtiko’s place in fine dining."
