The name Anaperenna has been inspired by Anna Perenna, the Roman goddess of the New Year.
Anna Perenna symbolises the year’s cycle and her name translates as ‘enduring year’.

Romans honoured Anna Perenna with a festival in March (the first month in the Roman calendar).
On March 15th, which was the first full moon of the year, they would ask Anna Perenna to grant them longevity.  They prayed that Anna would let them live one more year for each glass of wine they drank on that day.

Our Anaperenna wine retains Godolphin’s distinctive symbol: the Egyptian Ankh (pronounced: onk). Historically the ankh symbolised sunrise, regeneration, regrowth and renewal. The symbol becomes even more appropriate in the case of Godolphin’s rebirth as Anaperenna.
