Characteristics: AMASSI is the dry white wine that introduces this rare variety without the intervention of any other grape. It comes from vines aged 25 to 90 years. In the glass, it recalls pear, green apple, and ripe banana, while vanilla works subtly in the background. Its rich texture balances with fresh acidity and an aftertaste that leaves a gentle sense of sweetness, even though the wine is dry.

Food Pairing: At the table, it can take on the role of a full-bodied white. It pairs well with chicken or turkey in cream sauce, pasta with mushrooms, veal, smoked fish, and fish with white sauces. For a wine list, it is the label that catches the eye of any guest looking for rare Greek varieties.

“I studied viticulture and oenology in Italy because I had the vision of highlighting the Greek rare local variety Amassi”

– Savvas Thomaidis
