Agyros, Argyros Estate Oak Fermented 2013
(93)
A very elegant and smartly oaked Assyrtiko fermented in new oak and larger foudres instead of 100% new barriques as was the previous practice. The result is a fine Santorini at its peak combining a solid core of citrus fruit along with ripe apple, honey and roasted hazelnuts. Vivacious on the palate, medium-bodied and layered with salty complexity on the long finish. On par with PC Bourgogne level.
