Size

Vintage: 2003
Designation: Protected Designation of Origin Vinsanto Santorini
Grape variety: 80% Assyrtiko, 10% Athiri, 10% Aidani

The most mature yet translucent Vinsanto of Estate Argyros. A strict selection of old Assyrtiko, Aidani and Athiri vineyards in Episkopi, two hundred year old minimum, specifically earmarked for this style.

Harvested at very deep ripeness, almost a month after the main picking date, giving insanely low yields. The grapes are sun dried for fourteen days, natural fermentation and three years of ageing takes place in old concrete vats, with additional aging for sixteen years in old wooden vats. An intense, profound wine of breathtaking complexity. Ready to drink on release but time is unable to destroy this. Final yield of this would be close to 60 ml per square metre of vineyard.
