Sweet, Still, White, Aidani, Assyrtiko, Ages well, 9% alc.

The biggest greek and international competitions judge that Vinsanto is the "absolute star" of Greek sweet wines. This particularly well-crafted label perfectly combines the sweetness of overripe grapes with the acidity of Assyrtikos, giving us an elegant, complex and delightful sweet wine with a very long aging potential.

Details

Its color is deep orange with several shades of brown. Its aroma is flooded with nuts, fruit jams such as plum and apricot, chocolate, toffee and incense. It features incredible structure and harmony in the mouth, low alcohol and plenty of dried fruit that besiege the palate and leave a long honeyed aftertaste.
