Experience the unique charm of 100% Xinomavro with our meticulously crafted wine. Sourced from a prime vineyard in the Naoussa region, the grapes are carefully selected with a yield of no more than 800 kg per hectare, ensuring exceptional quality.
The winemaker relies solely on the natural pressure of the grapes during the winemaking process, avoiding the use of a press. This, combined with low fermentation temperatures, precise extractions, and gentle aging in French oak barrels for at least one year, results in a rich, well-structured wine with soft tannins and a hint of spice.
Tasting Notes
Indulge in the complex bouquet of ripe red berries, delicate floral notes, and a subtle hint of spice. On the palate, enjoy a beautifully balanced wine with a smooth texture, showcasing flavours of dark cherries, plums, and earthy undertones. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of soft tannins and refined spiciness.
As the wine matures in the bottle, its bouquet continues to evolve, promising a unique and memorable tasting experience.
Food Pairing Suggestions
The elegant structure and refined tannins of this Xinomavro make it an excellent match for slow-roasted lamb, grilled duck, and braised beef dishes. Its ripe red berry and spice notes pair beautifully with tomato-based pastas, wild mushroom risottos, and aged cheeses like Gruyère or Pecorino. The wine’s earthy undertones and smooth texture also complement Mediterranean herb-infused dishes and roasted aubergine. Best enjoyed decanted, this Xinomavro is perfect for sophisticated dining and special occasions.
