This Cretan expression of Assyrtiko brings a sun-kissed twist to the variety more commonly associated with Santorini. Expect bright, mouthwatering acidity wrapped around flavors of mango, passion fruit, and citrus peel, with a core of salinity and chalky minerality.
Aged Sur Lie for 3 months
The Alexakis family is one of the most important wine ambassadors in Crete and one of the oldest privately owned wineries on the island. Founded in the early 70’s by enologist and chemical engineer Stelios Alexakis and his wife Sofia in Heraklion, Crete. Today Alexakis is managed by their two sons, Lazaros and Apostolos, both enologists, with degrees from the Universities of Florence, Italy and Fresno, California. For decades it has invested in long-term relationships with most of the vine growers on the island. The result is high quality wines that truly represent the terroir of Crete.
