Halkia Corinth Assyrtiko Amber 2024

$2899

Anna Halkia returned from Australia to her family's land in Nemea, where she farms organically and makes wines from a tiny cellar behind the house. "Amber" is her skin-contact take on Assyrtiko, the great Greek white grape best known from Santorini but grown here on the Peloponnese mainland. The grapes get five days on the skins, fifteen days of wild fermentation in stainless at cool temperatures, then three months on the lees before bottling unfined, unfiltered and without sulfur. The result is bright golden in the glass, citrusy and lightly tannic, the kind of orange wine that goes with everything from raw fish to a sprawling meze spread.
