🌟 A crisp and vibrant Assyrtiko that captures the spirit of northern Greece — fresh, mineral, and full of lively character.

👁 In the Glass:
Pale lemon with silver reflections — bright, clear, and radiant.

👃 On the Nose:
Fresh and expressive, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, lifted by subtle notes of sea breeze minerality, honeysuckle, and a hint of wet stone.

👅 On the Palate:
Zesty and medium-bodied, with a core of crisp citrus and orchard fruit, underpinned by racy acidity and a lively mineral texture. Flavours of lime, grapefruit, and crisp pear unfold into a clean, persistent finish, with a refreshing, saline lift that speaks of its northern Greek terroir.

🍽️ Food Pairing:
Perfect with grilled seafood, Greek salads with feta, lemon-herb chicken, or fresh goat cheeses — a natural choice for Mediterranean-inspired dishes.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Delicious now for its vivid freshness, but can develop greater complexity over 3–5 years, gaining softer textures and hints of honeyed citrus.
