Assyrtiko Cinque Selection

Where does it come from?

Medium lemon colour Aromas from chamomile mint , green apple, pear and lemon are complemented with brioche and almond hints. The high acidity keeps up with the rich body and the long aftertaste. Flavors from citrus fruits, green fruits, bread and nutmeg.

The variety...

Assyrtiko-Santorini (pronounced A seer’ tee ko) wines are rare and distinctive. Dating back 3500 years, on the volcanic island of Santorini, these wines were born from the indigenous Assyrtiko grape, where it was cultivated in some of the world’s oldest vineyards, Assyrtiko-Santorini. Classified as dry whites, can be drunk young or aged, as they are precious, truly age worthy wines; the ideal complement to haute cuisine, fish, seafood and, surprisingly, even meat dishes.

Discover the unique character of the grape by choosing one of Cinque’s wine tastings or enjoy it by the glass at wine bars in Athens.
