ASSYRTIKO ANCIEN 2018

An unusual and impressive white wine that reveals the true potential of Assyrtiko through time. Assyrtiko Ancien 2018 is the result of a unique winemaking approach using the Solera method, marrying the freshness of new vintages with the depth and complexity of aging.

The 2018 harvest was selected through strict manual sorting on a vibrating table, ensuring only the best grapes were used. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, followed by four months of lees contact to enhance the wine’s body. It was then transferred to three 225-liter French oak barrels (3rd and 4th use), where it remained for a total of seven years.

Each year, the barrels are topped up with fresh Assyrtiko from subsequent vintages (2019–2024), which also spent four months in stainless steel, enriching the blend’s structure and creating a layered, vibrant result.
