Dyo Elies Amyndeon Red Blend 2018

The 2018 is 70% Syrah and 30% Merlot. There is no Xinomavro in this blend. (According to the label and the website.) Both grapes are coming from the Naoussa vineyards. The Amyndeon Xinomavro is now going into other Kir Yianni wines. It seems the blend went to only Syrah and Merlot sometime between 2014 and 2016. This 2018 is silky smooth with faint integrated tannins. It’s a bit closed right now though. Very faint detectable fruit, maybe plum or blueberry? Nose of cedar, smoke, and something I couldn’t pin down. At first I thought a hint of patchoulli? But I just tore apart the spice rack in the kitchen and it is definite bay leaf. Both aroma and flavour. And an earthy herbal bay leaf, pepper and black olive tail. It’s quite interesting. — 4 months ago

Family Estate Grown St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 1997

Fresh, youthful. John West noted a sense of ferrous which is correct .A wonderful sense of black cherry kir, almost a slight sweetness with just a touch of savory. A bit broad, intense on palate, in a nice place. — a year ago
