| Description: | Tasting notes Bright orange-golden color. Rich and complex aroma with dominant scents of dried and sugared fruits. Exquisite structure, acidity and finesse, with a strong aftertaste. Producer notes On the ancient plain of Oia, in the island of Santorini, the winery of Domaine Sigalas can be found. Here, the most vibrant variety of the Mediterranean zone, the Santorini Assyrtiko as well as the Aidani, Athiri, Mandilaria and the Mavrotragano are put to the best use possible, and with the proper respect to their organoleptic characteristics, the quality wines are produced which receive acclaim in international competitions, both in Greece and abroad. Technical notes Assytriko 75%, Aidani 25%. Classic white wine vinification from sun dried grapes (10-12 days). Aging in old oak barrels for a minimum of 24 months. Vinsanto is the most genuine descendant of the "passon oinon", as the sun dried wines were called in antiquity. During the Middle Ages the ancient volcanic Thira was renamed as Santo Erini - Santorini and thus the wine took the name Vino Santo - Vinsanto, thus declaring its place of origin. Thus, the name is a «historical name of appelation», one of the few still in existence. |
