Alexakis Assyrtiko Crete 2025 750ml

Alexakis Assyrtiko — Crete, Greece 2025

Alexakis is one of Crete's most respected family wineries, farming indigenous Greek varieties on the sun-drenched soils of the island with a commitment to expressing the unique character of Cretan terroir. Their Assyrtiko — crafted from one of Greece's most celebrated white grapes, best known from Santorini but equally at home on Crete — is a wine of striking freshness, mineral precision, and Mediterranean soul. Bright, aromatic, and endlessly food-friendly, it is the kind of bottle that transports you to a seaside taverna with every sip.

Bright yellow with green hues, the nose is expressive and inviting: passionfruit, mango, and fresh citrus with a characteristic saline minerality that speaks to the island's volcanic and limestone soils. On the palate, it is crisp and balanced with lively acidity, a clean mineral backbone, and a long, lasting finish. Refreshing, precise, and unmistakably Greek.

"Bright yellow color with green hues. The bouquet displays aromas of passion fruit, mango and citrus. Balanced taste with crispy acidity and a characteristic minerality around the palate. Long and lasting finish." — Alexakis Winemaker
