Oikonomou Winery

Crete Liatiko 2006

Insanely complex. Starts out meaty with chalky crushed candy heats on the nose. On the palate, hints of fresh plums persist but maraschino cherry and dried fig take over. Salami, anise, pink peppercorn, straw, dried rose petal, tar, tobacco, leather. — 8 years ago

Uncomparable to anything I've drank before. Very savory and saline. Almost like drinking sea water. Acidity is medium. Not much on the citrus side but there are some almond notes. Interesting. — 8 years ago

Cuvée No. 15 Santorini Assyrtiko 2012

Medium gold color. Nose of wax, brown sugar, flowers. On the palate there is not much acidity, flavors of oxidized apples, exotic fruit, flowers, wax, and butter. Shows some evolution but in the same time great depth. A wine to pair with a meal instead of taking it by itself? Very good (89)

Made of Assyrtiko and aged 6 months in stainless tanks. Alcohol level of 14,5%
