Tasting Note

A highly complex, aromatic nose and funky nose, with citrus notes combining with floral hints from the acacia wood, vanilla, toasty oak and a touch of smoke. The layers of wild ferment envelop this precise and dry wine which has a mineral and salty complexity to the tangy finish. This is a truly unique wine.

Product Notes

Gaia Assyrtiko by Gaia Wild Ferment is an exceptional white wine produced in the volcanic island of Santorini, Greece. Made from 100% Assyrtiko grapes that are grown in the Assyrtiko vineyards of Santorini, this wine is a pure expression of the terroir. The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with wild yeasts, giving the wine a complex, unique flavor profile. The nose is bursting with notes of citrus, peach, and sea salt, while the palate offers flavors of lemon, lime, and minerality with a long, crisp finish. It's a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes. A true gem from Greece that deserves to be discovered.

About the Winery

Gaia

The Greeks are known for traveling to various places and picking up knowledge from around the world. This rule applies to two agriculturalists, Yiannis Paraskevopoulos and Leon Karatsalos. Their love for wine took them to various wine-rich places of the world, where they learnt the tricks of the trade, before starting their own wine label, Gaia, in the year 1994. Since then, they have been doing all that they can to make the most of the two ultimate wine regions of Greece – Santorini and Nemea.
