About the wine
Our first 'orange' wine!
- Stop! If you want to take your vinous experience to another level, then read on. If not, this wine may not be for you...
- This is wine... but not as you know it. Hoof & Lur is Troupis’ winery homage to the wines made in the way their Grandfathers remember it. This wine is made using more skin contact than usual, unfiltered with only minimum intervention afterwards. The result is a beautifully vibrant orange wine.
- Floral with powdered sugar and tangerine that entice on the nose. Citrus notes add vibrancy to the palate. Light but fresh and with a long finish

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Yiannis Troupis
- You asked for hidden gems, so we went in search of something new for you. We are thrilled to introduce Yiannis, our first Greek winemaker.
- Yiannis Troupis' small family-run vineyard, situated 700m above sea level in the heart of the ancient Mantinia appellation, still does things the old way, lovingly tending the vines by hand.
- Their wines were always gobbled up locally, but Yiannis' dream was for people the world over to taste his wine. In fact he'd just bought a load of new winemaking kit when the Greek economy went over a cliff, taking his expansion plans with it. Time for Angel funding to get to work!
