Reviews for Santorini 2022
This is an elegant and fleshed-out expression of Assyrtiko with the concentration and honey-like flavors you can expect of the sun-drenched southern Aegean Sea. In a heavy glass bottle, the Vassaltis Vineyards 2022 Santorini Assyrtiko has a mid-weight and waxy texture with concentrated fruit, honeycomb and quince. Its texture is glossy, silky and generous.
