This wine has a nose of exotic fruits, which I sadly can't name. It has a round, peachy, melon-y quality and also a bright, minerally quality. There are also notes of freshly mown grass and a cotton candy core. Tangy lemon on the finish. Excellent!

Fantastic wine! The varietal Malagouzia which makes half of the blend still dominates the nose with a galore of exotism ;ripe pineapple,mango,papaya ,passion fruit alongside melon while Assyrtyko brings to the table its minerality and the refreshing lemon core.Medium bodied,concentrated fruit,good acidity.Could age for 2-3 years I reckon. Truly a world-class wine,a beaut!

Interesting and different are adjectives that come to mind. Very lemony, mineral, slight saltiness. Needs some fatty fish to cut through and become purposeful.

Nice blend of the floral Malagousia and the firm structure of assyrtiko. Lovely minerality, straight forward beauty, green fruits, green apple, lime. Nice fresh character at this stage. Would suggest one approaches this in he next couple of years.89-90 and great value.

Pretty and feminine displaying fresh fruits with a delicate perfume; assertive and dry; light with a spiced finish. Lovely.
4/5
