Orycton is an Assyrtiko-based wine produced by Kyanos Wines in very limited quantities, using grapes from old vines in the areas of Akrotiri, Pyrgos, and Megalochori on Santorini. Its profile is driven by pronounced minerality, vibrant acidity, and clean citrus notes, complemented by subtle herbal nuances, a touch of salinity, and faint smoky tones typical of the island’s volcanic terroir.

Fermentation follows a low-intervention approach, and the wine often spends extended time on fine lees to build texture, breadth, and depth. The style is linear, precise, and energetic, with a long, dry finish that highlights the natural concentration of the Assyrtiko grape.

Orycton represents a blend of traditional viticulture, meticulous handwork, and a modern enological mindset, positioning it as one of the most compelling small-batch Santorini whites for those who appreciate authentic, terroir-driven wines.
