Supple and structured reds with a deep ruby colour, melted tannins and moderate acidity, on intense aromas of ripe red and black fruits (cherry, plum, blackberry), sweet spices, Mediterranean herbs and balsamic notes. Made as young approachable reds, fresh rosés and barrel-aged keepers. The absolute star of Nemea PDO in the Peloponnese (Greece's flagship red appellation). Native Greek variety, one of the most widely planted in the country.
PGI of Central Macedonia (Greece) on the three-fingered peninsula south-east of Thessaloniki, Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes, limestone and schistose soils. Xinomavro is the flagship red of Macedonia: structured and taut with notes of black cherry, dried tomato, olive, herbs, undergrowth and a spicy touch, firm tannins and vivid acidity — compared to Nebbiolo. Fruity Limnio and Cabernet as complements. Saline Assyrtiko in whites.
