Amphora Wine Exploration Offer from Ikaria
This offer brings together three different sides of the Afianes Pithari philosophy. First, Pithari Dry White 2024 expresses the mineral, citrus and herbal character of Begleri. Then, Pithari Dry Red 2020 shows the deeper and more structured side of Fokiano. Finally, Pithari Light Extraction 2023 reveals a fresher, juicier and more elegant expression of the same red grape variety.
Three Pithari wines in one gift box
The Amphora Wine Exploration Offer works beautifully as a gift, because it gives the receiver a complete tasting journey. Instead of choosing only one bottle, this box allows someone to compare white, red and light-extraction red wines from the same natural winemaking philosophy. Moreover, it creates an easy way to understand how Begleri and Fokiano express the terroir of Ikaria.
Traditional amphora winemaking
Afianes Wines uses the time-honored Pithari method to create wines with depth, texture and a strong sense of place. The clay vessels help the wines evolve naturally, while the minimal-intervention approach keeps the character of the grape and vineyard clear.

Pithari Dry White 2024
Pithari Dry White 2024 comes from 100% Begleri and shows freshness, minerality and aromatic complexity. It offers notes of grapefruit, wild herbs, wet granite, earth and citrus fruit. In addition, its bright acidity and mineral finish make it ideal for seafood, oysters, clams, grilled fish, smoked cheeses and wild greens with lemon.
Pithari Dry Red 2020
Pithari Dry Red 2020 comes from 100% Fokiano and gives the box a deeper red-wine expression. It offers ripe forest fruit, cherry, wild cherry, minerality and a wet granite finish. Because of its structure and intensity, it pairs well with creamy cheeses, roasted fish with herbs, game, red meats and rich Mediterranean dishes.
Pithari Light Extraction 2023
Pithari Light Extraction 2023 also comes from Fokiano, yet it shows a lighter and juicier side of the variety. It brings red and black forest fruits, floral notes, violet aromas and long, integrated tannins. As a result, it fits many occasions, from relaxed dinners to more thoughtful food pairings.
