Santorini is a crescent island, shaped liked a cookie with a big bite taken out of it. Part of the Cyclades group, it lies on the junction of the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. It is prone to earthquakes and frequent volcanic activity

Making wine is a very old tradition in Santorini. There is a lot of sun here but not much water so yields are quite low. This means it was always going to be a bit of a cottage industry.
