Grapes are sourced from relatively young in regard to Santorini’s centenarian vines, with average 50 years of age.The vineyards are situated in lower altitude villages of the island like Kamari, Messaria, Vothonas and Akrotiri. Classic white vinification under controlled low temperatures in order to highlight the fruity expression of this multifaceted variety. Maturation on the fine lees under frequent stirring for at least 6 months.

Fruity aromas of melon, pear and citrus fruits combined with the typical mineral signature of the island and its hint of herbal notes. Supple, fresh on the palate with intensity, primary fruit character, nice vivid balance and long complex aftertaste. A perfect combination with Aegean seafood delicacies, fried or raw fish and shellfish. 

Artemis Karamolegos Winery is a continuation of the Artemis’s family tradition that started almost a century ago with the cultivation of local produce in Santorini. The first cellar was created by his grandfather in 1952 with the purpose of producing wine for home consumption. It was, however, Artemis’ innate love for the Santorini land and quest for preserving Santorini’s heritage, that realized in 2003 with the creation of his first wine at the premises of his new winery in Exo Gonia. The vineyard is the heartbeat of the winery. Artemis’s vision is to produce the best quality grapes while respecting the traditional way of cultivation and improving viticulture with the least possible impact to the environment. Today, the winery is known for its remarkable range of Assyrtiko wines, authentic to the volcanic soils of Santorini and expressed with simplicity, typicity and capacity to age over time.
