🌊 Saline, Complex, and Quintessentially Santorini Assyrtiko
‘Icon’ is the pinnacle of Anhydrous’ craft—an Assyrtiko that encapsulates the island’s volcanic soils and sea-kissed breezes, delivering depth, minerality, and precision in every sip.
🍷 In the Glass
Pale gold with a shimmering clarity—pure and striking.
👃 On the Nose
Expressive and layered, with notes of ripe nectarine, apricot, and lemon blossom, beautifully complemented by a distinct saline and mineral edge evocative of Santorini’s terroir.
🥂 On the Palate
Medium-bodied yet intense, with sharp, vibrant acidity and pronounced minerality. Citrus, stone fruit, and sea salt nuances unfold into a long, elegant, and deeply satisfying finish.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Ideal with fresh oysters, grilled seabass, crab, or herbed chicken with lemon.
⏳ Ageing Potential
Superb now but will reward cellaring for 6–8 years, gaining even greater complexity and texture.
💫 Why You’ll Love It
‘Icon’ is a benchmark Santorini Assyrtiko—saline, vibrant, and profound, offering a pure reflection of volcanic earth and Aegean sea. A must for lovers of distinctive, terroir-driven whites.
