Retenez bien ce nom\u00a0: assyrtiko. Jusqu\u2019ici, ce c\u00e9page blanc se cantonnait \u00e0 l\u2019\u00eele de Santorin. Depuis quelques ann\u00e9es, le domaine Gerovassiliou, pr\u00e8s de Thessalonique (nord de la Gr\u00e8ce) en a plant\u00e9, pour signer un des meilleurs vins blancs secs. Et m\u00eame notre Josef Zysiadis national envisage d\u2019en importer d\u00e8s cet hiver sur l\u2019\u00eele de Patmos, o\u00f9 il veut remettre au go\u00fbt du jour les \u00abvins de l\u2019Apocalypse\u00bb.
\nA Santorin, dans une terre sablonneuse, faite de silice volcanique, l\u2019assyrtiko est bon \u00e0 tout faire. D\u2019abord des vins blancs secs, aux ar\u00f4mes de p\u00e9trole qui font penser aux plus grands rieslings, vifs et frais. Un vin \u00e9tonnant sous la banni\u00e8re \u00abm\u00e9diterran\u00e9enne\u00bb, donc de climat chaud,\u00a0 et vendang\u00e9 d\u00e8s la mi-ao\u00fbt\u2026 Auparavant, les branches, tress\u00e9es en forme de panier, affrontent des vents violents. Le rendement est modeste. Et les vignerons se font rares\u00a0: il ne reste plus que 1’300 hectares dans ce \u00abparadis\u00bb de la maisonnete blanche \u00e0 toit bleu. Les touristes raffolent d\u2019une sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 locale\u00a0: le \u00abvinsanto\u00bb. Non pas celui de Toscane, seule r\u00e9gion europ\u00e9enne qui peut en produire aussi, mais un \u00abvin de Santorin\u00bb, en abr\u00e9g\u00e9, qui fut, jadis, un \u00abvin saint\u00bb de messe orthodoxe. Aujourd\u2019hui, ils sont neuf producteurs a en \u00e9laborer, \u00e0 partir d\u2019assyrtiko s\u00e9ch\u00e9 naturellement au soleil.
\nParmi eux, la coop\u00e9rative, SantoWines, qui remporte r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement des m\u00e9dailles d\u2019or au Concours de Thessalonique, et Boutari, la principale maison vitivinicole grecque, pr\u00e9sente \u00e0 la fois sur le continent, \u00e0 Santorin et en Cr\u00e8te. En couple, les \u0153nologues des deux maisons, Nikos Varvarigos et Johanna Vamvakouri, ne tarissent pas d\u2019\u00e9loges sur l\u2019assyrtiko. La jeune femme, \u00e9l\u00e8ve de Pierre Casamayor \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Toulouse, l\u2019a m\u00eame vinifi\u00e9 ce printemps en mousseux. Mais comme ce blanc vieillit fort bien (jusqu\u2019\u00e0 dix ans au moins), elle n\u2019est pas press\u00e9e de le faire d\u00e9guster. (
