This, from one of the country's leading estates, is a cracker for the money. The North Assyrtiko is produced from younger vines in their high altitude Amyndeon vineyard, a place which produces vibrant, mineral rich wines. It's a really lovely wine - zippy, fresh and minerally with subtle peach, apricot, citrus and apple blossom notes. It's a really refreshing wine with that mineral edge cleansing the palate and, with a hint of salinity, you can see why the wine sits so well alongside grilled seafood. If you're new to Greek wine, this is as good a place to start as any.
