The lead time for Pre-arrival goods is generally 4–8 months, sometimes longer based on supply chain and the logistics of transporting goods overseas. The expectation, from our team, is to communicate to the customer the location of their purchase every step of the way.

The Domaine Papagiannakos 2023 Assyrtiko will surprise you, thanks to its combination of primary freshness and its flinty aromas that veer toward diesel and petroleum jelly. The wine is immediate, structured and super fresh. You get an initial jolt of energy that is very satisfying and long lasting.
Assyrtiko is a white grape variety native to the island of Santorini in Greece, renowned for its ability to thrive in arid and volcanic soils. It produces wines that are mineral-driven, high in acidity, and deeply expressive of their terroir. Assyrtiko wines are characterized by their citrus flavors, particularly lemon and grapefruit, along with notes of saline minerality and hints of herbs like thyme. They are typically bone-dry with a crisp acidity and a steely texture, making them refreshing and versatile for pairing with a variety of foods. What makes Assyrtiko unique is its resilience; it can withstand high temperatures and strong winds, conditions that are challenging for most grape varieties. The grape's ability to retain acidity even in intense heat contributes to the longevity and age-worthiness of Assyrtiko wines, which can develop richer flavors and complex aromas with time.
Country
Greece
As one of the oldest wine producing countries in the world, Greece has millenia of experience and expertise when it comes to viticulture, and has developed a set of flavors and characteristics which are found nowhere else on earth. The ancient Greeks revered and deified wine, and were the first true innovators in the history of wine, adding everything from seawater to honey and spices in order to find exciting new taste combinations and aromas. Today, Greek wines are just as varied, although far more refined and sophisticated than their ancient counterparts. The practice of enhancing Greek wines with aromatic substances never left the country, though, as can be seen in the popular Retsina wines, which use pine resin to provide their unique taste and aroma combinations. There is far more to Greek wine than merely Retsina, however, and the vast variety on offer is a testament to the expertise of Greek wineries making the most of the wonderful climate, terrain and grape varietals they work with.

Winery Notes
The limestone soil and the unique microclimate of the region produces wine with a very clean and crisp profile with citrus and white flesh aromas.The acidity is very well integrated into the wine and gives the ability for long aging. With aging the wine develops a beautiful mineral character.
