These dispensers are located 2m into the ground and their use was to gather the wine that dribbled from the wine presses.

Imerovigli
The peaceful settlement of Imerovigli is considered one of the world's prime vacation spots, mainly due to its incomparable view of Santorini's famous Caldera and the golden sun setting into the Aegean Sea.
Imerovigli though, is also a "protected" settlement and has many other lovely characteristics such as its quaint Cycladic houses carved into the village's rocky cliff, narrow cobblestone streets and the view of the Venetian castle "Skaros".
It is located on the western side of Santorini, high above sea level. Opposite Imerovigli are the three volcanic isles of Thirasia, Palea Kammeni and Nea Kammeni.

Santorini (Thira) Island, Greece
Santorini is regarded by many as the most spectacular of the Greek islands. Thousands come to marvel at its sea-filled caldera, a vestige of what was probably the world's largest volcanic eruption. Its landscapes of blue-domed roofs, dazzling white walls and black-sand beaches contrast the charming with the unearthly.

The eruption that caused the caldera is believed by some myth-makers to have caused the disappearance of Atlantis. The island's violent volcanic history is visible everywhere you look - in its black beaches, earthquake-damaged dwellings and raw cliffs of lava plunging into the sea. Volcanic activity has been low-key for the past few decades, but minor tremors occur pretty frequently and experts reckon the caldera could bubble up once again at any moment. For lovers of impermanence and drama, no other place even comes close.

To get some background into this island's extraordinary history, head to the Megaron Gyzi museum of local memorabilia in Fira, with fascinating photos of the town before and after the disastrous 1956 quake. The Museum of Prehistoric Thira houses impressive finds from the ancient site of Akrotiri, destroyed in the 1650 BC eruption. Look out for the gold ibex figurine, found in mint condition in 1999 and dating from the 17th century BC.
