Naoussa Xinomavro
Whoa Nelly that’s a nose! Potent as being nosed out of sleep by my cat in the morning (ps I lied and told him that Xinomavro the grape was named after him, not vice versa). Full of dark red cherry, pepper, herbs (the wine not my cat, he’s just full of Fancy Feast) the palate echos the nose bringing in an amaro-esque element. I want more!

Oct 7th, 2023Light bodied, soft fruit, playful acidity. A lovely wine to pair with the regions cuisines and beyond. Pomegranate, tart cherry, earthy viney notes. Cheers!

May 8th, 2019Gorgeous. Slightly oxidative, but vibrant and complex. Drinking right now like an older Sangiovese.
