WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine Sigalas Assyrtiko Santorini is a premium white wine produced by Domaine Sigalas, a renowned winery located in the Santorini appellation of Greece. The vineyards are situated on the volcanic soil of the island, which imparts a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves hand-harvesting the grapes and fermenting them in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and purity of the fruit. The resulting wine is crisp and refreshing, with vibrant acidity and flavors of citrus, green apple, and a hint of salinity. It is a perfect match for seafood dishes and Mediterranean cuisine.
