The white wine Aoton Retsina of Mesogia, vintage 2020 from the winery Aoton Winery has been rated in 2023 by Wojciech Bońkowski with 90 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Savatiano
Tasting Notes
Sotiris Ginis is a champion of the Savatiano grape, which he harvests later than others for complete ripeness. Consequently, the Aoton wines have a broader, milkier mouthfeel with terrific complexity and ageing potential. The Retsina version is one of a kind, with toasted bread, wax, wet wool and a subtle hint of refreshing pine needle. Begs for oily, garlicky food.
