Domaine Papagiannakos Assyrtiko, PGI Attiki
- O
- V
- W
Papagiannakos’ coastal location on the Attican peninsula infuses the wine with salinity and racing acidity due to its close proximity to the ocean. It is produced from 100% Assyrtiko grapes. The vines are grown on unirrigated limestone soil at around 100m altitude in northeast Attiki. Grapes are typically harvested towards the end of August.
The wine undergoes no oak ageing – it’s fermented and matured in stainless steel at a controlled temperature (16-18ºC) with some time spent on fine lees and further maturation in the bottle for up to a year.
This particular Assyrtiko from Attika offers a more approachable window into Greece’s signature white grape. Fresh floral aromas of citrus, white blossom, mandarin and lime. Further citrus characters on the palate with texture and a pleasant chalky minerality. A zesty, crisp and characterful white with potential to age.
