- Description
- This is not a whisky—it is a Greek orange wine from Santorini made with Assyrtiko grapes macerated on skins and fermented in clay vessels. The fermentation imparts tannic grip and aromas of tropical fruit, wet stone, and minerality. On the palate, savory notes of sunflower seed and lime combine with baked hay. Best enjoyed with charred vegetables or grilled seafood.
