Plano Assyrtiko

Plano Assyrtiko offers mineral austerity with the iodine aromas of the sea. Its lemony, salty character evokes childhood memories, when as children we were bringing a handful of wet pebbles near our nose to enjoy their sea breeze.

The grapes come from a single vineyard in Kali Vrisi, on the eastern slopes of Mount Menoikio. The label featuring a protractor and the name ‘Plano’, ‘Plan’ in Greek, remind us of the two founders of the Estate, civil engineer Giannis Papadopoulos and architect engineer Giannis Kalaitzidis.
