MONTALCINO, ITALY
2007 GAIA, ASSYRTIKO, "THALASSITIS", SANTORINI, GREECE $28.99 100% Assyrtiko grapes from the Greek island of Santorini from 70-80 year old vines. I had a chance to taste this wine with the winemaker in San Francisco recently. Wow! This is one of the most intense and complex dry white wines that I have tasted from Greece. The wine has honeysuckle aromas and a mineral quality in the mouth with a long finish. Decanter magazine commented on the last vintage, " If it were made in mainstream Europe, it would have been widely acclaimed as one of the most sublime white wines money can buy." Did I mention that this wine can age? How much can I afford to put in the cellar?
