Afoura 2015
One more top quality Santorini which comes from the famous Avantis estate at Evoia, which has been very active in Santorini the last years. The name of the wine has a reference to the large wooden casks of 1.000 liters, traditionally used in Santorini during wine making. The result is a wine with complex aromatic profile of citrus, flint, honey, bergamot in a broader mineral background, with tobacco notes and nuts. As with every P.D.O. Santorini, wine's mouth and body are those that create bigger expectation. This is an exuberant and "thick" wine with impressive condensation, typical minerality as well as sharp acidity. Long aftertaste rotating between mineral and buttery elements.
