Enjoy now or cellar for a few more years. No need to decant before serving. This is a dry white wine, made from the native Greek Assyrtiko grape. It shows a beautiful pale blonde colour in the glass, accented by fresh green highlights. On the nose, this wine exhibits intense citrus scents alongside the iconic salty minerality of the Assyrtiko variety. Subtle floral notes, such as chamomile and lemon tree blossom, add depth to the aromatic profile. Founded in 1979 by Costa Lazaridi, this domaine was the first to plant vineyards in Drama, Greece, as well as being the first modern winery in the region. The winery is best known for its innovative winemaking practices, including its use of indigenous Greek grapes. The Chateau Julia Assyrtiko brings a full, tactile mouthfeel with high acidity and a long, saline aftertaste. It showcases an excellent structure, treading the line between rich and lively. You can discover flavours of lemon, grapefruit, pear, and apple on the tongue, enhanced by hints of flint and honey. The grapes were matured in stainless steel tanks to preserve the characteristic freshness of both the grape and the terroir. Perfect for a warm summer's day, this wine will be an excellent partner for goat's cheese salad, seafood, or poultry in a white sauce.
