Argyros, Vinsanto Late Release 2004

Assyrtiko, Athiri, Aidani, 13.5% abv, 500ml

One of the stars of the Vinsanto tasting. Deep, dark, and properly evolved, with a compelling dark chocolate character at its core. The wine shows authority, blending maturity, concentration, and a seamless oxidative complexity that feels fully integrated rather than merely aged. The sweetness is woven into the wine's broader structure, allowing layers of complexity to emerge. The finish is long, dark-toned, and complete. A commanding Vinsanto of genuine class and poise.
