Artemis Karamolegos Assyrtiko is a premium white wine produced by the renowned winemaker Artemis Karamolegos in the Santorini appellation of Greece. The wine is made from the indigenous Assyrtiko grape variety, which is grown in the unique volcanic soil of the island. The vineyard features low-yielding old vines that produce grapes with concentrated flavors and aromas. The winemaking process involves minimal intervention, with the wine being fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness and purity. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and full of citrus and mineral notes, with a long and complex finish. It is a perfect match for seafood, Asian cuisine, and light dishes.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This crisp and vibrant Assyrtiko from Artemis Karamolegos is a true testament to the potential from the lesser-known wine region of Santorini.Aromas of lemon, lime, and green apple give way to a palate of white peach, honey, and a hint of salinity. The finish is dry and mineral-driven, with crisp acidity that lingers. Drink now, or age for a couple more years.
