Chronos White Xinomavro Blanc de Noir, Naoussa 2020

Introducing an extraordinary Blanc de Noir, made exclusively from 100% Xinomavro. Argyrakis winery believes in celebrating individuality, and this wine is a testament to that philosophy. Sourced from the picturesque vineyards of Trilofos, Naoussa, these grapes thrive in low-yield conditions, ensuring they are rich in both aroma and flavour. Their meticulous aging process—10 months in new French and American barrels, followed by 3 months on fine lees—infuses the wine with remarkable depth and character, reflecting the journey of youthful discovery and transformation.

Tasting Notes
This Blanc de Noir delights the nose with a captivating blend of fresh citrus, green apple, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it reveals a vibrant and well-rounded texture, offering flavours of crisp pear, lemon zest, and a hint of vanilla from the oak. The finish is long and complex, with a perfect balance of freshness and depth. Ideal for those who appreciate a wine that combines youthful energy with refined elegance.

Food Pairing Suggestions
The vibrant acidity and layered complexity of this Blanc de Noir make it an excellent pairing for a variety of dishes. Its crisp citrus notes and subtle oak influence beautifully complement grilled seafood, such as seabass or scallops, while its bright acidity cuts through the richness of buttery risottos and creamy pasta dishes. The wine’s delicate floral and fruit character also pairs wonderfully with roast chicken, herb-crusted goat’s cheese, or Mediterranean mezze. For a more adventurous pairing, try it with sushi or lightly spiced Asian dishes, where its freshness enhances the flavours of the cuisine. Best served chilled, this wine offers a truly elegant and versatile drinking experience.
