WINE DESCRIPTION

This unfiltered gem, crafted from 100% Aidani grapes, hails from Santorini's esteemed PGI Cyclades appellation. Grapes sourced from renowned villages like Pyrgos, Megalohori, Akrotiri, and Emporio are cold-macerated for 12 hours to extract vibrant flavors. Fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures (16-18°C) using indigenous yeasts for a month, followed by 6 months of aging on noble lees. This meticulous process allows the unique character of the Aidani grape to shine through.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Hatzidakis Aidani is an outstanding white wine from the Santorini appellation in Greece.On the nose, it has powerful aromas of white flowers and citrus fruits, with subtle notes of stone fruits and nuts. On the palate, the wine is rich and creamy, with a nice balance of acidity and a long, pleasing finish. The overall impression is one of complexity and finesse, making it a great choice for any occasion.
