Kamara Estate Shadow Play Assyrtiko 2021

Thessaloniki Area, Makedonia, GreeceDimitrios Kioutsoukis and his family decided to give up city life to be more connected to nature, moving to Thessaloniki and planting 11 ha of organically farmed vines. All of their wines are low intervention, with native ferment, no sulphur additions and bottling without fining or filtration. From the schist slopes of Kamara-Oraiokastro Thessaloniki, this Assyrtiko (including some old bush vines) had 3 days of skin contact before a native ferment in stainless. Lovely structure, with grapefruit, wild melon, green apple, elderflower, and subtle sake notes through the saline finish. Fresh, tart, and pure view.Tasted: 27 February 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
