High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Santorini is a Greek wine region located on the archipelago of Santorini in the southern Cyclades islands of the Aegean Sea. Although wine has been produced there since ancient Greek times, when the region was known as Thira, it was not until the Middle Ages that the wine of Santorini became famous under the influence of the Venetians. The Italian influence is still present in modern Santorini winemaking; one of the wines the region is known for is a sweet Vin Santo (labeled here as vinsanto) made in a passito style from grapes dried in the sun after harvest. Santorini also produces blended and rose wine made from white grapes such as Athiri, Aidini and Assyrtiko, and red grapes such as Mandelaria. To avoid confusion with the Vin Santo wines typically produced in the Tuscan wine region of Chianti, many producers on Santorini have taken to labeling their straw wine produced in the vinsanto style as Liastos which is derived from the the ancient Greek word helios.
