Region Notes
As its label suggests, our ASSYRTIKO is produced from selected vine parcels located in The
North of Greece, at the village of Agios Panteleimonas in Florina, at the unique plateau of
Amyndeon. There lies the cooler wine region of Greece, consisting of an exceptional mixture
of elements. High altitudes between 600 – 700 meters and poor sandy soils on a stunning
terrain of raw mountainous beauty. The four neighboring lakes act as a moderating
influence of surrounding temperatures all year round, contributing to the continental-ish
climate with cold -often snowy- winters and mild summers, notable diurnal variation, and
the beneficial, trademark to the area, wind blowing from the north. For this introduction to
the varietal mountainous expression, we select mostly young vines of Assyrtiko (average
age of vines 10 years).
