Simon Field | A touch of green luminosity shadows the otherwise pale robe; a nose of orchard fruit and hints of fig and almond. So far, so intriguing. The palate pares down the structural potential with acidity at the core, a little perplexing given the vintage backdrop, then all is perfectly correct, the green fruit and hints of kerosene, lanolin even, robust and appreciably expressive. | 90

Andrew Jefford | Pale bright silver-gold. Of all of the Santorini Assyrtikos, this is the one that smells most clearly of tephra and pumice. It takes you aback at first and may seem faintly reductive to the uninitiated, but spend some time with it and you’ll soon find the allure. Piles of tephra in the mouth, too, in this full-bodied, structured, unprimary, mellow yet grippy, salty-stony white. Completely unique. A wine of few compromises but very satisfying once you open your mind and your palate to its possibilities. Ultimate terroir wine. | 94

Demetri Walters | The paradox of super freshness, sea air, and citrus, plus the ripeness and styling of a full and ripe wine. Very well put together. Still pretty taut, but showing the nascent lemon and seaside notes of a really good Assyrtiko. Very long. | 94
