Discover the grape variety: Xinomavro
Structured, taut reds with a clear ruby robe that quickly evolves towards tawny, firm tannins and sharp high acidity (hence its name, xino-mavro = acid-black), with aromas of red cherry, sun-dried tomato, black olive, dried herbs, spice, leather and balsamic notes. Fine ageing potential, often compared to Nebbiolo. Absolute star of Naoussa PDO in Greek Macedonia, also Amyndeo PDO. Very late-ripening autochthonous Greek variety.
