Description:
As early as the Middle Ages, Venetian sailors purchased this legendary sweet wine on Santorini and brought it back to their homeland. An often copied masterpiece, the true original can only be found on the island of Santorini and its volcanic soil. Once it was the local priests who used this wine for ceremonies in Orthodox churches, but today the mystical taste of dried raisins, figs, honey as well as dark chocolate, roasted nuts and coffee is also accessible to us.
