Naoussa Xinomavro

Enjoyably subtle Brett character that lifts the whole thing and leaves a little funk behind. More weirdness from Greece

Different. Like a Pinot with pepper.

Wonderful. Light bodied, plum, savory notes and cedar. Low tannins and rustic.

2008 well balanced

Diamantakos 2008

2008 Diamantakos Xinomavro, Naoussa

Dried fruit, date, raisin, dried cherry, walnut, nice acidity. Still holding on after all these years. Takes me back to my summer in the Greek Isles.

Nice Greek wine. Grape similar to Pinot. Paired well with lamb chops. Would have worked nicely with a branzino. Very versatile.

Great, complex wine. Went especially well with the beef tartare.

Learning Greek.
