Ageli Assyrtiko Lykos Winery

Ageli Assyrtiko by Lykos Winery is a white wine with intensity, structure and a more gastronomic character than a simple fresh Assyrtiko. It comes from Evia and shows the variety in a fuller, more crafted expression, without losing its characteristic freshness.

Vinification plays across three different “fields”: large old Austrian oak barrels, concrete eggs/amphorae and stainless steel tanks. Bâtonnage with the fine lees gives more volume, texture and depth, while the wine keeps the acidity and clarity you expect from Assyrtiko.

In the glass, it brings lemon, grapefruit, white fruit, herbs, subtle minerality and a slightly smoky feel on the finish. On the palate, it is full, energetic and balanced, with crisp acidity, good structure and a long finish.

It pairs very well with stuffed calamari, seafood pasta, grilled fish, shrimp, lemon sauces, white meats, salmon, cheeses and dishes with creamy texture. It is an Assyrtiko for anyone who wants freshness, but also a little more depth in the glass.
