Ageli Assyrtiko

In the glass, the varietal character of Assyrtiko is immediately evident: fruits, herbs, and a distinct minerality, with a metallic note that is a true product of the region’s microclimate. On the palate, crisp acidity and a generous body—a result of bâtonnage across all aging methods—create a versatile wine suitable for any occasion.

Ageli Assyrtiko is a truly impressive wine, a dynamic expression shaped by its 16-year-old vineyard’s unique microclimate.

Half of the vintage matures in 31-year-old, 1,000-liter Austrian barrels, while the remainder rests in concrete egg amphorae and stainless steel tanks. Bâtonnage with fine lees is consistently applied across all three methods.

In the glass, the varietal character shines through with clear notes of fruits, herbs, minerality, and a distinctive metallic quality—a direct reflection of the region’s microclimate. On the palate, expect a crisp acidity and substantial volume, both results of the bâtonnage, culminating in a versatile wine perfect for any occasion.

Serve with stuffed vegetables, seafood, fish, white meats, and pasta dishes accompanied by lemon-based sauces.

Apostolis and Nana Lykos welcome you to their winery in Malakondas on the Greek island of Evia. Here, our passion for wine is combined with a 40-year culinary tradition, which we inherited from our forefathers and continue to honor, while respecting the natural environment and safeguarding it for future generations.

STATE OF THE ART WINERY
Adventurous ‘palates’ visiting our winery will observe our stainless steel fermentation vats equipped with refrigeration mantles for optimal temperature control and will be shown around our automated bottling line. They will also tour our climate-controlled subterranean cellars filled with oak barrels and older vintages maturing in bottles, and will have the opportunity to sample the exquisite collection of Lykos family wines in our specially designed tasting room. Touring our winery is by itself a unique experience.
