Estate Argyros Cuvee Evdemon Santorini 750ml
Cuvee Evdemon is flirting with the boundaries of Estate Argyros’ understanding of the Santorinian environment. Biodynamically cultivated, very old Assyrtiko vineyards, at least 150 years old, in Pyrgos giving extremely low yields. Fermented, partially uninoculated, in stainless steel, at cool temperatures and aged for approximately thirty months in stainless steel tanks on fine lees, while a quarter of the blend had twelve months in French oak barriques and then the remaining months in stainless steel. A wine focusing on palate architecture that needs several years in bottle to open up while can reward cellaring for more than fifteen years.
Tasting
Lemon with green highlights. On the nose you can see its mineral character, saltiness, with aromas of lemon, green apple, aromas of dough and toasted bread, with nice integrated aromas of oak and vanilla. In the mouth it has crisp acidity with a pleasant oily sensation, mineral notes and saltiness with lemony flavors.
Accompanied
It ideally accompanies shellfish, grilled fish, such as large sea bream, sea bass, pagrus, meats such as lamb and goat, mushroom risotto, pasta with seafood.
