Discover this Serres Assyrtiko 2020
When grown organically, the grapes produce a small concentrated harvest, which is then vinified in stainless steel with a minimum sulfur content. The result is a spicy and invigorating flavor with intense acidity and salinity, which keeps the pear flavor irresistibly juicy. These aromas expand over time in the glass, developing a subtle richness that makes it very easy to drink.
