Such a delightful #naoussa #xinomavro at a charming Italian restaurant near the Acropolis. Red fruit, herbs, some forest floor notes on the nose, lovely acidity on the palate plus the fine grippy tannins worked well with richer creamy pasta dishes but delicious grilled aubergine slices as well.

A bit leathery. Too leathery. Why is it leathery? I must contemplate this important question. We must all. We must have the winery invite us to contemplate this important question!!!

I love Xinomavro, and was hoping this bad boy with some age on it would be life changing, but this one was a little flabby and the fruit was disappointing.

Naoussa. Small production. Traditionalist

3yrs oak
Clay/earthy minerality
Ground meat, leather, bacon
Tomato cherry
Powdery tannins
Zingy vibrant acidity

Can't pinpoint exactly why but this is one of the most enjoyable Naoussa wines I've had and one of the most balanced
