Amyndeon, Macedonia, Greece
Popped and poured; no formal notes. Continuing our commitment to only drinking Greek wine on this trip, this Blanc de Noir made from Xinomavro was a fun way to start our meal at Salis. The zero dosage was…obvious and the phenolic bitterness was about as much as I can recall in a wine. But with some grilled octopus, this blossomed. Notes of stone fruits, underripe raspberry and loads of minerals. Acid was off the charts. Disgorged December 2022
