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.

Gentle nose full of minerality and the characteristic, for Assyrtiko of Santorini, flint. Notes of ripe stone fruit and tart citrus. Mouth rich, exuberant with finesse and razor sharp acidity. Long aftertaste with saltiness and minerality. Decanting into a carafe is recommended to allow the wine to breathe and open up in order to bring out its complex character.

After Epanomi, Kavala and Ilia, Vangelis Gerovasileiou and Vassilis Tsaktsarlis arrive in Santorini where they meet the oenologist Ioanna Vamvakouris and create the Mikra Thira winery, the first attempt made in Thirasia. This is a stunning wine made from 100% Assyrtiko grapes from Santorini that reflects all the characteristics of this unique terroir. Sharp acidity, structure, minerality, citrus and saltiness!

The Anhydrous by Apostolos Mountrichas brings a new look to the performance of the majestic terroir of Santorini. Its unique talents, created by the earth, the volcano and the sea breeze are exceptionally reflected, with the fruit meeting the smoky minerality and the incredible levels of acidity under a solid structure.
