Kir-Yianni Assyrtiko Amyndeon PGI 2025

Mainland Assyrtiko, more generous than the style grown on Santorini.

In their words -  Vibrant yellow lemon colour.  Intense nose with aromas of peach and apricot, complemented by notes of citrus and white blossoms.  The mouth is crisp and zesty with balancing acidity and delicate mineral notes in the background. Pleasant finish with a long aftertaste. Extremely versatile in food and wine pairings and a perfect choice for wine by the glass.

As its label suggests, our ASSYRTIKO is produced from selected vine parcels located in The North of Greece, at the village of Agios Panteleimonas in Florina, at the unique plateau of Amyndeon. There lies the cooler wine region of Greece, consisting of an exceptional mixture of elements. High altitudes between 600 – 700 meters and poor sandy soils on a stunning terrain of raw mountainous beauty. The four neighboring lakes act as a moderating influence of surrounding temperatures all year round, contributing to the continental-ish climate with cold -often snowy- winters and mild summers, notable diurnal variation, and the beneficial, trademark to the area, wind blowing from the north. For this introduction to the varietal mountainous expression, we select mostly young vines of Assyrtiko (average age of vines 10 years).
