Tsiakkas – Exelixis 2024
Exelixis - meaning “evolution” in Greek - is a refined white blend that truly lives up to its name (exelixis means evolution in greek), offering a journey that evolves with every sip. Crafted from Promara, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Xynisteri, it originates from ungrafted, handpicked vines in the high-altitude vineyards of Pelendri and Kato Milos (1,200–1,440m).
Grown in sandy, volcanic, and clay soils, the grapes undergo cold soak and barrel fermentation with carefully selected yeasts, before maturing for six months in a mix of French and American oak.
On the nose, Exelixis opens with bright aromas of lime, melon, pineapple, and delicate hints of white chocolate. On the palate, it continually evolves - starting with fresh citrus zest, moving into lush tropical fruit, and finishing with subtle oak and creamy texture. This layered progression makes each sip more captivating than the last.
