Boutari

Today we hit the Boutari vineyard to see how they make the Santorini wine. They mostly make white. The ground here has a topsoil that is volcanic debris, or rock. It is very arid. They had a display of all the different layers of rocks and the top 3 feet are volcanic gravel, it almost looks like. There is very nearly no rain, and there is not enough water to irrigate.

All of the vines are wrapped around in a basket to preserve the humity that rises up from the sea.

My session in my cafe expiring. More tomorrow !

Good night!
