Description

‘Artisans Vignerons de Naoussa’ are a collective of growers that share a passion for cultivating Xinomavro in the scattered hillside vineyards of the Naoussa region in Northern Greece.

This is the birthplace of the Ximomavro grape, which thrives in the diverse landscape, dotted with forests and creeks, and has a remarkable ability to reflect the land in which it is grown.

Their philosophy is to use natural, organic vineyard treatments and minimalist winery practices to produce characterful wines which reflect their roots and the traditional craftmanship of the area.

 

This is a beautifully complex lighter style red with red fruit, dried fruit & tea like fine tannins. It is now 6 years old so gaining age & developing flavours of tobacco & dried herbs. Xinomavro can be liked to a Pinot Noir or Nebbiolo with great acidity & ability to age.
