Why do we love it?

Afoura 2022 by Anhydrous Winery is a striking expression of Santorini’s volcanic terroir at its finest. This wine is part of Apostolos Mountrichas’ second winemaking project on the island and comes from own-rooted vines, trained in traditional kouloura baskets in the Pyrgos area, grown under the island’s harshly dry climatic conditions.

The wine was aged for a full 12 months in traditional 1,000-liter oak barrels known as Afoures, historically reserved for Santorini’s finest wines. This aging process lends depth, structure, and layered complexity, resulting in a wine that captures the grandeur and soul of the island.

Tastes Like

Afoura 2022 is aromatically complex, with notes of lemon, lime, roasted nuts, and the minerality of wet stones.

On the palate, it is full-bodied, with high acidity and a dense, textured mouthfeel. Flavors of honey, lemon oil, quince, and vanilla intertwine with hints of hazelnut and a distinctive mineral backbone.
