Is Vidiano the next Assyrtiko?
The knowledgeable say yes!
It is definitely a hidden wine treasure revealed and it gets all the attention it deserves! It is described as Greek Viognier and already it is considered to be the great diva of Crete.
If you add to the equation the two young winemakers full of passion and anxiety about the outcome, Lefteris and Giannis Digenakis, a beautiful bottle, and one of the best versions of the Cretan variety, you understand that the result is worth our attention. With 20% of production maturing in a barrel for a very short period, Vios Protos 2017 by Digenakis Winery acquired enviable structure and backbone that enhances the already exuberant character of the variety.
Vidiano is definately a variety that everyone should know and try! We, adore it!
From Crete with love!
