Greek & Roman Geography (ed. William Smith)

Oenoe

INOI (Ancient city) EVDILOS
  Oinoe. A small town on the northwest coast of the island of Icaria. (Strab. xiv.; Steph. B. s. v.; Athen. i. p. 30.) This town was probably situated in the fertile plain below the modern Messaria. The name of the town seems to be derived from the wine grown in its neighbourhood on the slopes of Mount Pramnus, though others believe that the Icarian Oenoe was a colony of the Attic town of the same name.
