This Jim Barry Assyrtiko has brought the hitherto unpronouncable variety [ah-ser-teeko] to dinner tables around the country, for which we say thank you. It is perfectly poised for our climate and food, giving an array of nashi pears, green apples, briny acidity and a pleasant, sun-drenched hay vibe that most of us can only imagine. Delicious and uncomplicated. Drink it in the short term for maximum freshness.

In August 2012 we planted Australia’s first Assyrtiko at our Lodge Hill Vineyard, a special and unique site treasured by my family and suited to this variety. Our Assyrtiko journey has been fascinating and has enabled us to produce a wine which, I believe, is a true expression of the variety. I hope you find the flavours as interesting as I did in 2006.”
