Very nice golden colour, with green and yellow hues. Its aroma is rich of white flowers and citrus fruits, with a delicate buttery bouquet of a slight beeswax scent, apricot, linden and melon. Rich flavour that, while being aged in bottle, gets velvet, buttery and develops a dense apricot character. You can distinguish a seductive mineral flavour in the background. Superior, long lasting aftertaste second to none, in apricot tones.
White wine that was released in 2008. "'Aspros Lagos" means "White Hare" and is the placename of the vineyard.

Should be served at 10°C and would accompany well fish, such as grouper, red porgy, common dentex, lobster, grilled scorpaena, turbot and all shellfish, as well as pork with dried fruit and pullet with white sauce and mushrooms.
Brilliant is the combination of this wine with some Cretan traditional dishes, like boiled young goat and pilaf or "lamb with askolibroi (lamb with golden thistle).

Aspros Lagos White Tasting Notes
Tasted in | Country | Tasted by | Published on | Vintage | Wine tasting notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2017 | U.K. | International Wine Competition | www.decanter.com | 2016 | Luxurious oak and stone fruit characters. Creamy with lovely concentration and a vanilla finish; compelling and great value for money. |
2016 | U.K. | International Wine Competition | www.decanter.com | 2015 | Buttercup yellow with a lemon, peach and oak bouquet and a juicy, nutty palate. Lots of substance and fairly priced. Another competent rendition of this upcoming varietal. |
2014 | U.S.A. | Mark Squires, Wine Journalist | www.robertparker.com | 2013 | The 2013 Aspros Lagos is Vidiano aged for 5 months in wood (80% new, the rest used), matured in a mixture of Acacia (60%) and French oak (40%). Elegant and quite charming, it handles its oak very well – the touch is light – and manages to be relatively clean. Overall, it seems to lack the persistence and freshness, relatively speaking, of the un-oaked (or, more accurately, un-wooded) Vidiano also reviewed this issue. Drink now-2017. |
