Gaia Assyrtiko Thalassitis 2019
Gaia's Thalassitis ("Originating from the Sea" in Greek) is produced from Santorini's indigenous white grape variety, Assyrtiko grown on vineyards that are now approaching 80 years old. The flagship white of the Gaia portfolio, this white wine is bone-dry with strong character. Full-bodied, well-structured with crisp acidity, distinctive minerality and delicate honeysuckle aromas. This white wine will continue to evolve for 2-5 years, as the mineral notes soften the palate will develop more nuanced flavours of fruit and honey.
