PYRITIS 2022 - ARTEMIS KARAMOLEGOS WINERY

Pyritis 2022 Artemis Karamolegos Winery in Santorini, is an epic Greek wine, highlighting the grandeur of Assyrtiko and the rain of medals that it usually causes it is not surprising at all! Exuberant but elegant, Pyritis Artemis Karamolegos Winery expresses the terroir of the best vineyards on the island. It also got 92pts from Decanter!

The winery of Artemis Karamolegos is one of the oldest on the island of Santorini and produces wines from different vineyard sites, highlighting the many faces of Santorini and the various expressions of Assyrtiko.

Pyritis is the result of a union of three different vineyards, with Assyrtiko vines over 120 years old. Two are located in Pyrgos and one in Megalochori. Very low yields, minimal interventions, and 10 months maturation on its fine lees, contribute to the creation of one of the best Assyrtikos in Santorini (Decanter agrees!).

It has medium lemon color and intense notes of grapefruit, peach, butter, citron, honeysuckle, and orange, on a mineral background of smoke and flint. The mineral footprint of the island is crystal clear.

Dense structure, luscious body, high acidity and high concentration. It changes in every sip, unfolding its personality and impresses everyone that tastes it. Bitter orange, grapefruit, ripe peach, nectarine, citron, bergamot, and honeycomb meet wet stone, flint, toasted sourdough bread, and smoke.
