Artemis Karamolegos
Nykteri Assyrtiko Blend
Santorini, Aegean, Greece
Popped and poured. The 2019 “Nykteri” is a blend of 90% Assyrtiko with the balance comprising of some Athiri and Aidani. This was utterly beautiful with bright, powerful lemon citrus fruits and tremendous minerality. The acidity, which was in the medium+/high category, was sneaky well hidden. There was very deft use of large format oak (a combination of used and new) that combines well with the sur-lie style and makes this drop dead gorgeous. The finish was packed with minerals, saline and went on forever. A killer pairing with grilled octopus and coquettes with arseniko from Naxos and apaki.

Crisp with a bit touch of oak, excellent.
