Vibrant lemon color. On the nose delicate aromas of citrus zest and stone fruits — peach, apricot, and lemon — layered with mineral notes that will evolve with time. On the palate, the medium body balances creamy texture and vibrant acidity. Long, lingering finish.
Domaine Sigalas Description
From grapes grown on carefully selected field-blend parcels spread over areas of the island of Santorini. Both varieties are co-cultivated at an estimated percentage of 85% Assyrtiko and 15% Athiri. All processes (harvest and winemaking) handle both grapes as a blend.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
A field blend of 85% Assyrtiko and 15% Athiri, the 2023 Santorini Aα offers the structured tension of the first grape with the pretty floral aromas of the second. Athiri tends to be lower in acidity, but its presence gives a gentle lift and elegance to the bouquet. This vintage saw low yields and heat stress, but the results are even more concentrated and lovely as a result. The grapes are not destemmed before being pressed, and you perceive a hint of waxy richness on the close.
