Emblematic of the resurgence of Greek viticulture, Vassaltis has brought the island of Santorini back into the spotlight. Yannis Valambous, the driving force behind this renaissance, returned to his homeland to lead the success of this rapidly growing appellation.
Working alongside renowned oenologists Elias Roussakis and Yannis Papaeconomou, he demonstrates Santorini's remarkable ability to produce world-class wines from its unparalleled volcanic soils. A new generation of winemakers is making its mark, bringing fresh perspective and skill to the global wine world. |
