Gaia Wines, Thalassitis, Santorini, Assyrtiko 2025

Sourced from old, low-yield vineyards in Santorini, Thalassitis Assyrtiko 2024 by Gaia Wines is a premium expression of 100% Assyrtiko, showcasing the power and precision of this iconic Greek grape variety. Grown in volcanic soils across Episkopi, Akrotiri, and Pyrgos, the wine is crafted in stainless steel to preserve purity, with no oak influence. Extended time on fine lees enhances texture while maintaining its signature high acidity, delivering a crisp, mineral-driven and age-worthy style.

Food Pairing Suggestions
Perfect with seafood, oysters, grilled fish, and shellfish. Its acidity and minerality also complement ceviche, sushi, and fresh Mediterranean salads. Best enjoyed well chilled.
