Lyrarakis Voila Assyritko 2023

Deep stony citrus aroma with a hint of lime and fresh green fruit. Much more obvious skin-derived texture here than in the 2021 vintage, a fine tannic grip that is a great foil to the fruit and high acidity. A distinctive style with a persistent citrusy/herbal finish, persistent thanks to the texture, more complex and attention-grabbing but not showy. Really long and beautifully crisp without being out of balance. Direct, pure and textured. When to drink: 2024-2028. Score – 20 (Julia Harding, MW,jancisrobinson.com,June 11, 2024)
