boutari kallisti assyrtico (santorini)

點擊次數：2761

The shy nose hints at plantain, caramel, peach pith and a touch of diesel. The palate follows through with tropical fruit and citrus pith, again with diesel. A very nice wine, only missing some midpalate heft to fully complete the picture. ——M.D.(10/1/2006)—— 85

This is 100% Assyrtiko from Santorini, barrel-fermented in French oak. As a result, it shows some nutty, toasty elements on the nose, some softer peach fruit on the palate, and then shows trademark Assyrtiko acids on the finish, finishing a bit hard and tart.——J.C.(9/2/2004)—— 87
