DECANTER 96 POINTS - "100% Assyrtiko from very old vines. On the nose it's a volcano in a glass: crushed stones and a chalky-spicy nature reminiscent of a great Chablis, with wild flowers and citrus fruit in the background. On the palate there's grapefruit and tangerine too, with salinity and oyster shell complexity. Phenomenal wine, truly world class: wonderful to drink now or keep."

Overpriced
Compared this to two different Assyrtikos grown on Greece's mainland and this one fell flat. Santorini isn't a great value and this vintage wasn't a 96 stunner to me. Mainland Assyrtikos still demonstrated the textural components of this variety while having way more aromatics and complexity.
