Patoinos Domaine de l’Apocalypse Assyrtiko 2018

2018 is the best vintage so far for Patoinos winery in Patmos island, an artisanal winery producing just 5.000 bottles in total. The Assyrtiko is fermented in stainless steel and then matures on gross lees for approximately 8 months. Spontaneous fermented with 24 hrs on the the skins it is medium gold in colour with an exotic ripe nose full of nuts, candied apricot and oyster shells. Medium bodied and zesty it coats the palate with balanced flavour of minerals and fruit. Long finish. (SO2 added only during bottling as 10 mg/lt)
