Yiannis Economou trained in Italy, worked at Château Margaux and with Piedmont's Nebbiolo masters, then retreated to the remote Ziros plateau in eastern Crete at 600 meters elevation. Operating without website, social media, or signage, Economou produces some of Greece's most sought-after wines in tiny quantities from own-rooted, pre-phylloxera vines. The Assyrtiko Φ Phi represents a rare oxidative interpretation of this variety—complex and contemplative rather than fresh and mineral-driven. Extended aging in older oak develops nutty, honeyed character with preserved lemon notes. The 2017 is now fully mature, showing apple marmalade, dried tangerine, and beeswax textures. A cellar-worthy, contemplative expression. Serve slightly warmer than typical white wine.
