Hatzidakis 2022 Aidani White Wine: A Santorini Treasure

Origin & Craftsmanship:
Sourced from the sun-drenched vineyards of Santorini, Greece, this 2022 Aidani white wine by Hatzidakis Winery embodies the island’s volcanic terroir and centuries-old winemaking heritage. Crafted from the rare Aidani grape—a varietal celebrated for its delicate complexity—this wine offers a unique expression of Santorini’s authentic flavors, free from reductive techniques that dominate modern winemaking.

Tasting Profile:
Pour a glass to discover its golden-yellow hue, followed by an aromatic bouquet of gardenia, white blossoms, and subtle citrus zest. The palate reveals layers of ripe pear, toasted nuts, and bright lemon, balanced by a silky texture and a moderate body. The finish lingers with a harmonious blend of buttery richness and a briny, mineral-driven salinity—a signature of Santorini’s volcanic soils.

Why Hatzidakis Stands Out:
Unlike mass-produced wines, Hatzidakis prioritizes terroir-driven purity. Their single-vineyard bottlings from the Louros vineyard (between Pyrgos and Megalochori) showcase the diversity of Santorini’s microclimates, challenging the myth of homogeneity. As pioneers in monovarietal Aidani (first bottled in 2000), they offer a rare opportunity to savor this ancient grape’s true potential.

Perfect For:
– Wine enthusiasts seeking authentic Greek varietals
– Pairing with seafood, Mediterranean dishes, or soft cheeses
– Collectors valuing limited-production, terroir-focused wines
