Hatzidakis – Aidani – Dry White
Overview: Hatzidakis winery was founded in 1997. Co-founders: Haridimos Hatzidakis & Konstantina Chryssou. In 1996, Konstantina showed to Haridimos the vineyard of her family. This vineyard is located at the village of Pyrgos Kallistis, on the way to the monastery of “Profiti Ilias-Santorini”. It is situated 330 meters above sea level. The vineyard was abandoned for many years, as Konstantina’s parents, George&Aikaterini Chryssou had left the island because of the earthquake in 1956 and had moved to Athens as many locals did at that time. Until 1996, the vineyard remained uncultivated. Haridimos was the first who took the decision to re-cultivate the vineyard and the rest is history. The vineyard was cultivated with Aidani which is an organic grape variety.
Tasting Notes: Gold-yellow color. Fine aromas of gardenia and small white flowers. Citrus fruits, pear and nuts, lemon notes. Elegant texture, moderate body with buttery and salty aftertaste.
