Laoudia Assyrtiko from Ktima Tselepos is a single-varietal Assyrtiko produced on the island of Santorini through the Canava Chrissou estate. Grown on volcanic soils shaped by wind and intense Aegean sun, the wine reflects the island’s signature combination of salinity, tension, and mineral precision.
Aromatically, it shows layers of lemon zest, grapefruit, and white peach, supported by flinty, smoky nuances and subtle floral tones. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet tightly structured, driven by vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral backbone.
Lees contact and careful vinification add texture and depth without diminishing varietal clarity. The finish is long, saline, and persistent, often carrying citrus peel and subtle spice.
Designed for both freshness and aging potential, it evolves toward honeyed and nutty complexity over time. Laoudia pairs particularly well with seafood, grilled fish, shellfish, and Mediterranean dishes where acidity and minerality enhance flavor precision.
Overall, it represents a focused and terroir-expressive interpretation of Santorini Assyrtiko.
