Vintage 2017 | this wine has a lot of classic Bordeaux characteristics, like eucalyptus, hints of tobacco, some spicyness. But it has also a Diam cork - and the much appreciated @Stefan Dolhain has made me aware that the wines often dry out, at least with such a cork. This is a textbook example… damn! — a day ago

Vintage 2020 | Nykteri is the word for ‘staying up whole night’ in the local language. Santorini vintners harvest in the morning and press the grapes during night. Made of Assyrtiko, Athiri and Aidani grapes. Absolute very mineral. Very compelling wine that matured in barrels for three months. We drank it with shrimps dim sum and it made us happy. — 6 hours ago
