Tasting Notes and Description

Alexakis Winery Assyrtiko is a stellar example of how a grape native to the Aegean islands finds a new expression in the fertile soils and microclimate of Crete. As one of the largest family-owned wineries in Greece, Alexakis Winery leverages its extensive expertise and passion for winemaking to craft a version of Assyrtiko that is both distinctive and true to the varietal's characteristics. This wine is a vibrant testament to the Assyrtiko grape, celebrated for its ability to produce profoundly aromatic and mineral-driven wines. The Alexakis Assyrtiko captivates with its bouquet of lemon zest, green apple, and a hint of flint, reflecting the varietal's inherent crispness and aromatic intensity. On the palate, it unveils a robust acidity and a rich minerality, balanced by a subtle fruitiness and a dry finish that leaves a lasting impression.

The Alexakis Winery's Assyrtiko is not only a reflection of the winery's commitment to quality but also an invitation to explore the unique terroir of Crete. Its sharp acidity and complex profile make it exceptionally food-friendly, offering perfect pairings with a wide range of dishes. It shines alongside seafood, from grilled fish to shellfish, enhancing the flavors with its citrus notes and mineral edge. It also pairs beautifully with Greek salads, fresh cheeses, and Mediterranean dishes that feature olive oil and herbs, providing a refreshing contrast to the richness of the cuisine. Whether enjoyed on its own as a refreshing aperitif or served with a meal, the Alexakis Winery Assyrtiko brings a piece of Crete to the table, offering wine lovers a chance to savor the unique characteristics of one of Greece's most esteemed grape varieties.
