From magnum. Quite restrained nose with green apple/pear fruit alongside swet minerality. Medium to full-bodied with balancing acidity and a long aftertaste. Still very young, needs another 2-3 years of cellaring to start expressing itself. The previous time I had it from a 750ml bottle was signifficantly more expressive and enjoyable.

Obviously youthful, but potentially the best Kavalieros vintage to date. Restrained and refined nose of grapefruit, limestone minerality, scents of green pear and iodyne on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with obvious on the lees aging character. Dense and in the same time crispy and vibrant with balancing acidity and a long aftertaste. Great pairing with sea-food such as fried sepia with its own ink and raw oysters. Will express itself after a couple of years but already shows its greatness.

Crisp and acidic, but with power, classic Assyrtiko, still excellent! Notes of honey and minerals.
