About the Winery:
Raised on Santorini, Paris Sigalas,
first began making wine inside the traditional cave or “canava” located
at the
family home where he was born. Paris now runs a modern winery located in
the
same village of Baxedes, where visitors can come to taste his special
wines and
enjoy the famous Santorini sunset. A mathematician by trade, Sigalas has
given
all of his time and effort to realizing the extraordinary potential that
the
Assyrtiko of Santorini has to offer. Because of Paris’ deep affection
for his
native island, he has continued the island’s ancient winemaking
traditions and
has become a tireless advocate for the protection of the historic
vineyard and
the unique viticultural practices still used there.
