🔸What makes this wine so special? Apart from the climate, the geology of the island plays quite an important role too. The soil of the island is really poor, consisting mostly of loose soil, ash and rocks. Therefore, the vines have to pe*****te the ground with their roots to ensure their access to water.

🔸After reaching the calcareous subsoils, they secure the humidity required for their growth since these soil beds filter and absorb the year’s rainfalls. In addition, these vines are practically immune to the parasite of phylloxera, since Santorini does not have the clay deposits required for the existence of the parasite. Therefore, some of the plants are hundreds of years old and have provided the island with an uninterrupted wine production since antiquity.

🔸The addition of different varieties on the island because of those advantages enriched the local production and shaped today’s viticulture. During the growth of the vines, farmers weave the branches into a basket.

🔸The flagship of Santorini’s grapes is Assyrtiko, a highly acidic grape full of citrus and mineral nuances. Other white grape varieties exist as well such as the Aidani and Athiri as well as some red grape varieties on a much smaller scale! 🍇

Pyritis is made from extraordinary three parcels of 100% Assyrtiko that can be more than 120 years of age, two in Pyrgos and one in Megalochori. These are two villages that are highly regarded for producing top-quality grapes.
Pure nose, full of minerality and flint which is a typical hint of Santorini’s Assyrtiko. Notes of matured stone fruits and tart citrus fruits. The palate shows considerable depth and genuine concentration, rich and dense with finesse and well-balanced acidity. Long aftertaste with saltiness and minerality! 🍷
