That is why its cultivation has been spread almost all over Greece... The assyrtico variety within Santorini's ecosystem acquires a unique expression, procucing wines with metallic character,excuberant body and high alcohol level, while at the same time they retain high acidity & freshness...
ARGYROS ESTATE since 1903 is maybe the best Assyrtico producer on the island and one of the TOP 100 wineries in the world, according to
