Tasting Note

Deep amber in colour, this richly textured, warming and aromatic orange wine delivers intense notes of candied tropical fruit and dried fruits, layered with vanilla and honeycomb nuances.

Product Notes

Gaia Clay Assyrtiko is a Greek white wine made from the Assyrtiko grape variety. This wine is a beautiful expression of the terroir of Santorini, where the grapes are grown. The unique volcanic soil and the sea breeze create a distinct and complex taste. Gaia Clay Assyrtiko has a bright and golden color, aromas of citrus, white flowers, and mineral notes. On the palate, it’s rich, dry, and full-bodied with flavors of lemon, grapefruit, peach, and a long and refreshing finish. This wine pairs perfectly with seafood, grilled vegetables, and fresh salads. Gaia Clay Assyrtiko is an excellent option for those who want to discover the unique flavors of Greece.

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.
