Hatzidakis Winery Santorini Familia Dry Assyrtiko 2019

Familia is Hatzidakisand#39; entry level Assyrtiko but is nevertheless a stunning example of the grape.andnbsp; This cuvee is drawn from a 15andndash;20-year-old plot of estate vines planted in the traditional basket training system of Santorini on their own roots. It is fermented with native yeast at a controlled temperature and aged for 5 months on the lees in steel.andnbsp; While Assyrtiko is never light this cuvandeacute;e always plays into a leaner and brighter side of the grape. the 2019 shows a bit of unctuous nectarine fruit alongside bright citrus with saline acidity on a medium bodied frame.andnbsp; Perfect for richer seafood such as scallops or fatty fish.
