The large wooden barrels that were traditionally used in Santorini were called Αfoura. This exceptional Santorini expression of Anhydrous, signed by Apostolos Mountrihas, has matured in such barrels. Having acquired a mature and complex character and capturing with great precision the special characteristics of the island, it has already won a place among the great Santorinian Wines.
Images shown above are indicative
The colour is pale gold with some green highlights. It displays a complex nose, with ripe flavors like honey , bergamot and dried citrus peel . Signs of tertiary minerality have began to show clearly, with hints of burnt tobacco and nuts to follow . On the palate it is exuberant, with crisp acidity and a really persistent aftertaste. It is certain that it can develop for a few more years and become even more rich and complex aromatically.
