Melissokipos Assyrtiko
Assyrtiko is an excellent Greek grape variety, originated from Santorini island.
It is cultivated all over Greece, producing great wines with characteristic high acidity and minerality.
Crete plays an important role in the production of high quality wines from Assyrtiko grapes as the one from the Cretan mountainous vineyards typically has more intense aromas of herbs and wild flowers.
Assyrtiko wine is the perfect pairing for seafood.
Ideal for wine connoisseurs looking to age their white wines in a
cellar.
