2023 T-Oinos "Clos Stegasta Rare" Assyrtiko Cyclades Greece

Notes

T-Oinos has rapidly risen as one of Greece's best wineries. Based on the island of Tinos, just a short ferry ride from the luxury island of Mykanos, the vines sit on a hill of granitic soils some 400 meters above the sea. The winemaker behind the amazing strides at this estate is Stephane Derenoncourt, known for his work at such great properties as Domaine de Chevalier, Pavie Macquin and la Mondotte. All vinification uses organic practices and native yeasts. The Assyrtiko Rare is from a select parcel with low yields delivering great concentration. It is all fermented and aged in a mix of amphora and large oak casks. This singular Assyrtiko has richness but incredible finesse. A wine for now but will cellar beautifully for many more years.
