WINE DESCRIPTION
Hatzidakis Santorini Assyrtiko Cuvée No. 15 is a premium white wine produced by Hatzidakis Winery on the Santorini island in Greece. The wine is made from the Assyrtiko grape variety, which is grown on the volcanic soils of the island. The vineyard features low-yielding old vines that are hand-harvested to ensure the highest quality grapes. The winemaking process involves minimal intervention, with fermentation taking place in stainless steel tanks and aging on the lees for several months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Assyrtiko grape, with notes of citrus, minerality, and a long, refreshing finish. It is a perfect match for seafood, grilled vegetables, and Mediterranean cuisine.
