Typaion Assyrtiko 2024 Markogiannis is the new release from the Markogiannis family winery. Yes, it is Assyrtiko; no, it doesn’t behave like the rest. Minimal intervention and the thoughtful interplay of steel, oak and amphora sit perfectly with the naturally dynamic character of the variety, delivering a wine of depth, precision and unmistakable personality.
The Markogiannis Winery is a family estate with roots dating back to 1982, based in Skillountia, Ilia, close to Ancient Olympia. Since 2001, the vineyards have been farmed organically, guided by a philosophy of genuine respect for nature and a light hand in the cellar, allowing both place and variety to speak with clarity.
The grapes for Typaion Assyrtiko Markogiannis come from selected vineyards around ten years old and are fermented in stainless steel tanks using indigenous yeasts. The wine then matures for six months, with 60% remaining in tank, 25% ageing in amphora and 15% in oak barrel. The result is vibrant and expressive, brimming with fruit while showcasing the distinctive mineral character that defines the variety.
