Lifted white floral aromas and wet stone on the nose. The fruit weighted palate offers light floral, wet slate and citrus flavours with a mineral texture, and a classic lick of saline on the finish. Screaming summer drinking, the finish is clean and refreshingly long.

“I first tasted Assyrtiko in August 2006 while on holiday with my wife on the Greek island of Santorini, birthplace of the Assyrtiko grape variety. The crisp, acidic qualities reminded me of our Clare Valley Rieslings and yet it was a flavour I had not experienced before. In August 2012 we planted Australia’s first Assyrtiko at our Lodge Hill Vineyard. Our Assyrtiko journey has been fascinating and has enabled us to produce a wine which, I believe, is a true expression of the variety. I hope you find the flavours as interesting as I did in 2006.” Peter Barry, Second Generation Family Winemake
