Gerovassiliou, Estate White Malagousia/Assyrtiko
Malagousia and
Assyrtiko are acknowledged to be the two best native Greek white grapes. Yet they could not be more different. Malagousia is exotically aromatic and intensely fruity, usually low in acidity, for drinking young. Assyrtiko is aromatically discreet but intensely mineral, high in acidity, for long aging.
Here they have been brought together in a 50/50 blend by Vangelis Gerovassiliou, one of the most respected winemakers in Greece, and the man who saved Malagousia from extinction. The two complement each other beautifully, delivering Malagousia’s fragrance backed up by Assyrtiko’s zesty palate.
