Pyritis Mega Cuvée
 Dry white wine, Appellation of Origin Santorini of High Quality

Vinification: All the grapes were handpicked and brought to the press as whole
bunches. Only neutral yeasts were used and we took care to vinify these parcels as naturally as
possible letting them speak for themselves.

of Santorini’s Assyrtiko. Notes of matured stone-fruits and tart of citrus fruits. The palate
shows considerable depth and genuine concentration, rich and dense with finesse and well
balanced acidity. Long aftertaste with saltiness and minerality.
Food Pairing: Matches perfectly with oily fish or salmon carpaccio.
Alternatively try it with lamb fricassee or white meat like stuffed turkey, making also a great
pair with pasta or shellfish risotto

About the Winery:
The Karamolegos Winery, founded in 1952
by Artemis Karamolegos, began from a passion for winemaking passed down
to him
from his beloved grandfather who made wine in a small cave or “canava”
using
the old traditional methods. In 2004, a new and modern winery was built
to take
advantage of the latest in modern technology, while also adhering to the
traditional practices passed down from generations. Artemis has been a
champion, not only of the main Assyrtiko variety, but has also invested
in the
cultivation of some of the more obscure indigenous varieties of
Santorini, like
Mavrotragano, Aidani, Mavrathiro and Voudomato.
