Santo Wines runs an extensive Vinsanto programme, both unfortified and traditionally fortified styles. The cooperative ages Vinsanto in oak for a minimum of 24 months with the Grand Reserve held for over a decade.
Tip: The fortified Vinsanto tasting on the Pyrgos terrace is the most accessible introduction to the style; the 12-year Grand Reserve is the cooperative's signature library release.
Estate Argyros holds an extensive Vinsanto library, with verticals stretching back several decades. The family fortifies select cuvées and ages Vinsanto under traditional sun-drying methods in oak for 20 years and beyond.
Tip: The rare 50-year-old Vinsanto bottling appears on the vertical menu seasonally; book the library vertical class for the complete generational tasting.
