Aidani is a white Greek variety that is grown in the Cyclades PGI and sometimes used on the island of Santorini. It produces wines with moderate acidity and subtle citrus notes. It is mostly blended with other varieties such as Athiri and Assyrtiko.
“Deep caramel in color, the expressive nose offers a basket of desert delights from honey, dates, nuts, and raisins. The dead giveaway Assyrtiko leads the blend is the beautiful bright throughline of taut acidity running from the sweet baking spice beginning to the sweeping, elegant finish. A brilliant reminder of why the world needs these traditional dessert wines.”
