Santo Wines

The vineyard of Santorini is one of the oldest in the world, with a 3,500 year history, is considered as a World Heritage site.

What makes the island of Santorini so unique is the special ecosystem, created by the continuous explosions of the local volcano and the lava that burned the rocks and made the land absorbing, porous and rich in porcelain.

SantoWines cultivates approximately 4000 acres of vineyards that represents about the 1/3 of Santorini surface.

Assyrtiko is not an unfamiliar word, especially to the wine enthusiasts all over the world. The rare, white Greek grape has become an international star for lots of reasons: amazing wines, distinctive character and an outstanding way in which it imprints the birthplace –Santorini.
