The 2021 Santorini Assyrtiko, the flagship 100% Assyrtiko, is unoaked and comes in at 14.6% alcohol. Ripe and delicious, this big and fruity Santorini is better today for its young fruit than its structure, but there is firmness underneath the initial blast of fruit. It rolls over the tongue and tastes great in its youth. Experience suggests this will be better in a couple of years and that it will age throughout the decade, maybe more. It was certainly better the next day, fleshing out and showing off more of its structure. This has one key question: Will it hold its balance as it ages? It's very big and it has to show that it can hold and become better, not just be a big and ripe fruit bomb. It has a pretty good chance to do so, but this blockbuster style will also drink well young. Still, cellar it for a couple of years for best results.

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.
