“Nassitis” means islander in the Doric dialect spoken by the first inhabitants of Santorini after the cataclysmic volcanic eruption. Vassaltis Nassitis is, quite literally, a local islander: a harmonious blend of Santorini’s three native white varieties — Assyrtiko, Aidani and Athiri — created to capture the essence of the island of black stone. It is the perfect companion to a journey across Santorini, whether imagined or real, bringing volcanic landscapes, sea breezes and sun‑drenched days straight into your glass.
Aidani, Athiri, and Assyrtiko are vinified separately. They meet and each variety has to say her own. Like friends having to see each other for a long time. Elegance, liveliness, acidity, "minerality", fruit and flowers are the first they talked about. They had a whole lot more to share.
Picture this. It's summer and you are preparing for your trip to Santorini, looking forward to discovering everything about the volcano, walking on the Caldera, diving in the mysterious seabed of Santorini, and enjoying the Santorini gastronomy!
Whether you make it to the island or have a change of plans, with the Vassaltis Vineyards' Nassitis, Santorini can easily come in your glass. This is the kind of holiday that never ends...
