Why do we love it?
If all Greek wines from Savvatiano were like the Savatiano by Aoton Winery then we are sure that it could easily dethrone giants like Assyrtiko and Malagouzia. Why? Because this Savvatiano has impressive concentration, sharp acidity, and intensity of aromas that leave you no choice: you just love it from the first sip!
Sotiris Gkinis is a young winemaker with a remarkable passion for the indigenous varieties of Attica, Savvatiano, and Roditis. His philosophy is that good wine takes time to fully express itself and there is no need to rush to get it out in the market when it's super young and fresh. So, Savvatiano has just been released, as he now believes that it has reached its peak. After the night, manual harvest follows fermentation and maturation with its fine wine lees for at least 10 months. It is worth telling you that you have definitely not tried something like this before. This Savvatiano has incredible structure, unique concentration, and an impressive oily texture that can accompany intriguing and complex dishes.
