Its predecessor has raised the bar very high, but Diamantopetra White by Diamantakis Winery from Crete, shows that experience makes things better. The harvest of 2023, after an extremely rigorous selection, gave a white wine that makes its red brother jealous.
Vidiano continues its impressive course and meets Assyrtiko which seems to be conquering the Cretan vineyard. Their blend bears the striking characteristics of the two varieties in absolute balance. The barrel petting complements and rounds the intense juice, adding depth and complexity. The vinification of each variety was made separately while the alcoholic fermentation was completed in oak barrels where the blend remained for three months.
If you try it now, the Diamantopetra White 2022 will amaze you. If you can afford to wait 2-3 years, it will leave you speechless.
