Product Notes

A product of Gaia Estate, the Gaia Monograph Assyrtiko wine is an exceptionally refined Greek offering. It showcases an expressive burst of ripe citrus fruits, balanced by distinctive minerality inherent to Assyrtiko. The beautiful pale yellow colour gives way to a tantalising bouquet of lemon zest and mild spices. On the palate, it greets you with a rich mouthfeel, potent acidity and a fresh, clean finish. This wine is versatile enough to pair beautifully with a range of dishes, especially seafood. It's a delightful and distinguished representation of the Assyrtiko grape, showing the exceptional wine-production abilities of the Aegean Islands.

Tasting Notes

A youthful and refreshing Assyrtiko, with lifted citrus fruits, exuberant tropical fruits and a touch of honeysuckle. Fresh and zesty with a mineral backbone and lovely, crisp finish.
