This is a regular bottling, available at wine stores and restaurants and not just Nammos, so possibly a different wine to the one reviewed by Papies. Straw-yellow with golden hues. Subtle nose of citrus fruit, mostly tangerine and chalky minerality. Noticeably sweeter fruit compared to most Santorinis. Medium-bodied, balanced with some noticeable evolution especially at the zesty aftertaste. Drink now or over the next 2-3 years. This is one of the 3 priciest Greek whites (all of them assyrtikos).

Special bottling only for Nammos, Mykonos. Assyrtiko from Tinos Island. Quite a modern, light oaky, fatty expression of assyrtiko. To be honest, and maybe its its youth but it felt a bit generic oaky white at this stage. Don't get us wrong it's not a bad wine at all and if nothing else a well made wine but not up to the hype and price tag. 89
