The Lyrarakis Assyrtiko Voila appears a bright platinum color in the glass. The nose is filled with aromas of citrus and white fleshed stonefruit with herbal and chalky notes. The mouthfeel is rich and crispy with a salty freshness and a slightly miernal aftertaste.
Pair with pork with celery, all kinds of shellfish and fish.
The Lyrarakis Estate is a family winery which has been producing high quality wines since 1966 with a strong focus on rare local varieties and producing single variety wines. The family is credited with the revival of two ancient Cretan varieties, Dafni and Plyto while a third “vineyard treasure”, the indigenous Melissaki, was recently added to the credits. Surrounded by the idyllic setting of the vineyards and the Lassithi mountains we offer you the opportunity to enjoy nature and discover local varieties and wines distinguished by the uniqueness of their origin and heritage.
Our family discovered the quality potential of East Crete since the 70's. Originally on the “Vóila” plain and subsequently in the extended surroundings, we discover exceptional vinyards where the great grape variety Assyrtiko thrives.
The harvest was performed by hand seeking to obtain a proper fruit maturity. Skin contact was carried out fo 10 hours. Fermented in a stainless steel tank, this wine had a slow fermentation rate that lasted for 15 days.
