The grape variety called Assyrtiko is one of the most popular white grape varieties in Greece. It hails from the Cyclades island of Santorini.

Over the past 25 years, Assyrtiko has  increasingly been planted on the Greek mainland and now in the South, in Crete. Assyrtiko is one of these grape varieties that can grow in hot and dry climatic conditions, so the island of Crete fulfills the requirements.
