Thymiopoulos Vineyards Atma Assyrtiko 2025

The Thymiopoulos family grew grapes in Trilofos, a village on the foothills of Mount Vermio in Naoussa, for generations before Apostolos Thymiopoulos became the first to vinify them, starting while he was still studying oenology. His estate is built around Xinomavro, but Atma turns to Assyrtiko, grown in scattered higher-altitude plots across Macedonia, with the Fytia plots sitting at 450 to 650 meters on schist and granite soils. Altitude tempers the region's warm continental climate, and a wide swing from warm days to cool nights during ripening pushes the harvest later and keeps the fruit lively. Fermented cool in stainless steel and rested two months on its lees, it is exactly what the label promises, light and mineral: fresh citrus and stone fruit with a delicate floral lift, crisp acidity, a supple texture, and a long, refreshing finish. Northern Greek Assyrtiko at a price that makes it an everyday white.
