Santorini’s Assyrtiko displays a lemon color of medium intensity. Citrus aromas and white flowers dominate on the nose, along with the characteristic mineral Assyrtiko undertones.
Dry on the palate, with high, yet balancing acidity, and great complexity, underlined by mineral, fruity and floral flavors.
The story of Kalliston Winery begins in 1922 when Mendrinos Eleftherios produced the first wine. Three generations of the Mendrinos family have been making wine. Mendrinos family’s passion for wine, love for the land, and respect for Mendrinos heritage continue to flourish.
The Santorini Assyrtiko as well as the Aidani, Athiri, Mandilaria, and the Mavrotragano are put to the best use possible, and with the proper respect to their organoleptic characteristics, the quality wines are produced which receive acclaim in international competitions, both in Greece and abroad.
