April 17, 2024 - Very pleasant and drinkable. Tannins are smooth and unobtrusive. Medium weighted. Cherry and pinot noir like. Good value.

April 8, 2024 - Had it with roast duck. Was desperate for a weekday drink so opened this. Smoky, ripe cherry, some oak, balanced tannins. Good alternative to Pinot noir.

March 26, 2024 - Keep in mind that I’m not used to drinking a lot of Greek wine. I’ve had tastings at big events but they have generally left me underwhelmed. This wine blew my socks off! Deep ruby in colour, more than I would have expected, but it is only 2021 vintage. For a supposedly tannic wine, the tannins were obvious but not intrusive. Big blast of raspberry. Some pepper also, and a slight eucalyptus. We had some green olives with the wine which enhanced the fruit and eucalyptus notes in the wine, in a good way. The aftertaste was long lasting. Wine Society at £24 is amazing value as well. Aired for an hour before drinking, and slightly chilled.

February 5, 2024 - 1 heure d’aeration. Le vin s’est ouvert, mais aurait pu prendre encore plus d’air. Moins éclatant que le 2020, mais un excellent RQP.

February 1, 2024 - 2e bouteille ouverte, un peu d’évolution depuis 1 an, avec des notes animales et de sous-bois plus marquées. On est moins sur le fruit et plus sur la complexité, ce Xinomavro ne cesse de me surprendre. Par contre, les tannins légèrement plus fondus rendent le vin un peu moins frais que par le passé.
