Red cherries, dried herbs, dusty integrated tannins - just delicious!

4th bottle of our Greece exploration. Rapsani region, Xinomavro, Krasato, Stavroto blend. A really good effort. A little bit rounder than the Nemea. I guess the grape blend is responsible for that? Very good QPR.

Delicious Xinomavro blend. Drinks like a Cab Franc/Cab Sauv blend. Plenty of delicious ripe fruit up front, followed with pyrazine and tannic character with a medium + finish. Probably not very ageable, but delightful drinking now.

This is a really nice well balanced wine. Reminds me of a cabernet. Lots of tannins and will hold up to a nice steak. Paired with elk steaks. Very good. Good price. Recommend.

Not bad. Not as tasty as I had hoped. Took a while to open up bot still never yielded the flavours I had expected from this interesting sounding 5-year old xinomavro blend.
