Pure is a boutique project which began with the 2013 vintage. It is part-owned by Matthew Argyros, and is located in a simply but beautifully renovated ‘Canava’,  an old cellar on a hill, carved from the pumice just outside Episcopi Gonia. Only 6,000 bottles are produced each year, and the wine comes from a couple of parcels of two hundred year old vines! Half are planted on the white pumice from Pyrgos and half are on black basalt from Megalo Chori. Part is free run juice and part very gently pressed from whole bunches. The wine ferments in concrete and then spends 14 months on fine lees before bottling. It’s a complex, rich, but very nicely-balanced wine with probably a good potential to age. This is fast becoming one of the cult wines of Greece.

"All in concrete. Even though there is no oak here there is a woody/cedary character. Dusty, chalky and dry even in the aroma. So crisp it is almost sour on the palate but it lives up to its ‘Pure’ name. Bone dry, cedary citrus intensity, lean and long. Still so young and vibrant.  Drink 2016-2023."  Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, June 2017
