From a single plot of very old vines known as Thalassina, this parcel has given wines of real distinction and has been vinified separately. If there was such a thing, this could be considered a Grand Cru of Santorini. It is rich, powerful and austere yet deliciously smooth, with a backbone of refreshing acidity, enveloped by zesty citrus and ever-present smoky flintiness. This is a wine of great balance and finesse.

This is a truly distinctive white blend of various known and unknown, white varieties based on Potamisi, Aidani and unknown Karabraim. Ungrafted bush vines, more than 150 years old, yields are extremely low from these centenarian terraces. Herbal character on the first sip with sage and wild garrigue. Notes of lime, citrus and spicy characteristic as ginger with hints of minerality complement the citrus fruit. Steely mouthfeel with bright acidity and herbal flavours there is a linear and crystalline character with a long and chalky finish.

An Assyrtiko that is mostly vinified and aged in stainless steel although with a small part in concrete. There are aromas of chamomile, white grapefruit and ocean breeze. The palate is focused and linear yet with plenty of charm with a lemon oil and verbena note that is intriguing and delicious.

An exceptional Assyrtiko that comes from the estate’s oldest, ungrafted vines. It is a wine with huge complexity showing notes of verbena, sea spray, peach blossom and grapefruit pith. On the palate there is a vibrant and linear drive of acidity which adds focus to the wine but so much depth and texture that comes through to support. This will only gain in complexity.

The Limniona grapes come from the mountainous areas of Karditsa, in the Thessaly region. The climate is strongly affected by the region’s inland position, exactly in the ‘heart’ of mainland Greece. The higher elevation results in a continental climate with greater seasonal and diurnal temperature variations. The wine offers enticing aromas of cherry, wild strawberries and blood orange, with a little pepper and savoury spice. There is a brightness and energy to the wine with a fine grained feel to the tannins balanced with charming, delicate red berry fruits.

A blend of Limnio, Mavrotragano and Mavroudi grapes where each was fermented in small oak casks of 50 hectolitres. There are flavours of ripe, dark berry fruits with accents of cocoa and a little savoury spice. There is a charm and elegance here with a silky feel to the tannins with a lift of violet and plum on the finish.
