Gaia Thalassitis Santorini
Assyrtiko is perhaps the only Mediterranean variety of grape to flourish under such difficult climatic conditions. From poor, porous soil formed by volcanic activity and composed largely of pumice, Gaia harvests fully mature grapes with a relatively high acidity. Their vineyard, located on the Southeastern slopes of Episkopi is composed entirely of 70-80 year old, ungrafted vines with a dramatically low yield.
THALASSITIS is a bone-dry wine with a delicate honeysuckle aroma and a crisp finish… a white wine of a strong personality.
