The 2023 Karamolegos Assyrtiko Feredini is a beautiful expression of Santorini's iconic grape variety, Assyrtiko. It opens with a fresh, vibrant nose, offering aromas of citrus zest, green apple, and a touch of saline minerality, evoking the island's volcanic soils. There's a subtle herbal note in the background, like wild thyme or oregano, adding complexity. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing with a lively acidity that perfectly balances its medium body. Flavors of citrus and crunchy yellow fruits are complemented by a stony minerality typical of the region. The finish is long and precise, with a delightful tension between fruit and salinity, leaving a clean, refreshing aftertaste. Ideal with seafood or Mediterranean dishes, it also stands on its own as a refreshing aperitif.
