The wines of Santorini are known for their special character, a result of her unique terroir, but the Aidani of Hatzidakis Winery is known for its originality and its charismatic, late creator.
Haridimos Hatzidakis was undoubtedly one of the greatest Greek wine producers. A wine genius with endless talent, a man with a vision that changed the logic of the most important wine zone in Greece, putting it in the loudest way on the world map.
Aidani, on the other hand, is one of the rarest indigenous varieties of Santorini. Less known than Assyrtiko, in one of its few single varietal vinifications, it impresses with wines like this. Aidani of Hatzidakis Winery comes from the oldest vineyard of the estate, which is grown organically from the very first moment. After fermentation, it remains in the stainless steel tank for 6 months, and then it is bottled without filtering in the bottle with the child’s drawing on the label, designed by Haridimos’s daughter when she was 3 years old. Now Stella, older and wiser, has taken the reins of the winery and is continuing what her father left off.
Aidani of Hatzidakis Winery, apart from being delicious and complex, is almost collectible!
