Minerality and well-balanced acidity give depth and longevity.  This white wine will continue to evolve for 2-5 years, as the mineral notes soften the palate will develop more nuanced flavors of fruit and honey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFOOD PAIRING\u003cbr\u003eA classic pairing for seafood, fatty fish, as well as poultry and even lamb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eACCLAIM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWA 93+\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine Advocate 93+ points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gai'a 2023 Santorini Assyrtiko Wild Ferment has initial hints of spiciness on the bouquet with crushed cumin seed and white pepper. These aromas serve as a frame to heavier fruit tones of persimmon and summer-ripe cantaloupe melon. This wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel and oak, with some acacia, American barrels and amphorae in the mix. It shows an exotic side for sure with an oily, mid-weight texture. You definitely feel the intensity—and the elegance—of Santorini in this glass.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e— Wine Advocate, Dec 2024\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"review-item mb-3 views-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"views-field views-field-body\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field-content\"\u003eDecanter 93 points\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field-content\"\u003e“Lemon peel, crushed rock and pineapple on the nose.
