Duft av plommer og bløt jord. Drikker den antakelig litt for kald. Likevel kjølig frukt (altså ikke i betydningen kald :)), behagelig syre, litt sødme i ettersmaken. Grei vin til mørkt kjøtt av tamme dyr og gryteretter.

Nose: tomato sauce, perfumed floral notes, red fruit (sweet cherry, sweet strawberry), also earthy notes (smoke, forest floor, mushroom). Tasting: Light to med-light-bodied. Bone dry. Low on tannins, but hint of grapefruity bitterness in aftertaste. Not very fruit-driven, but red fruits are most prominent. A little short on taste but long, quite pleasant aftertaste of tomato and sweet cherries - hint of grapefruit. Refreshing wine that went great with red pizza. 87p

Still happy with this buy. Deep ruby. Raspberry, rose and a hint wood/cedar on the nose. Medium acidity and gentle tannins. Taste also reminds me of sour beer. Not sure this gains anything more from further storage.

Pale ruby colour. Medium (+) and youthful nose with raspberry, strawberry, rose petal and lavender. Medium taste of raspberry strawberry, lavender, dried herbs and rosemary. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Light tannins. Medium tannins. A very good Naoussa Alta. Needed 15 min in the glass to open. Drink now or over the next five years. Goes well with duck, mushrooms, pork, poultry or veal.

Lys burgunder farge. Lukt av blanding av solbær og jordbær. Mild og fløyelsaktig i munnen. Fersk frukt. Veldig behagelige tanniner. Sur-søtlig middels lang utgang.

Ikke dekantert. Behagelig pinot-preg med snev av nebbiolo. Starter friskt og spenstig, for så å tape seg nedover flasken. Mot likegyldighet. Dette fortsetter dag 2. Avstå fra ytterligere kjøp. Tar høyde for at jeg ikke skjønner premisset bak vinen.

spennende lukt med krydder og hagebær, mynte. Lett frukt med forsiktig sødme som balanseres med god syre. 1 dag i flaske: parfymert lukt, og lett frukt, mistet litt finesse fra i går.

Relatively intense bouquet w. featherlight cherry notes, floral and spicy w. cucumber in the back. Dry w. high acidity, good tannic structure, slender body. Delicate red fruits, herbs and some grapefruit zest. Very harmonious. Very good. Lengthy finish.
Keep or drink.

Post lunch hangout at Maison Dakota. Drank in Gabriel Standart. Pop and poured. Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby colour. Legs. Nose is cean medium+ intensity, with aromas of sweet red cherries, strawberries, cherry cola, rosewater. Youthful. On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol, soft medium+ tannins, medium body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of strawberries, sweet red cherries, cherry cola, sickly sweet rosewater. Soft medium+ finish. Acceptable quality. Clean, pleasant, soft red fruit character. A bit blah at the moment. Somehow not showing as well as other Xinomavro I remember so far. High altitude vines. Maybe need a bit more age to flesh out.

Pale ruby colour. Medium (+) and developing nose with strawberry, ripe raspberry, rose petal, lavender, dried herbs, wet leaves, leather and forest floor. Medium (+) taste of strawberry, ripe raspberry, lavender, dried herbs, black pepper, smoke and potting soil. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium tannins. Medium body. A very good Naoussa Red that still has potential. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with duck, mushrooms, pork, poultry or veal.

Modest nose of garden berries, leather and herbs. Fresh, concentrated and apparent fruit. Good lenght in a dry finish. Xinomavro from high altitude wines. Really nice stuff.

Quite light red. Perfumed nose with cherry fruit and minerals. Very acidic right after opening, but becomes gradually smoother during the evening. Juicy, fresh and structured.

Lysere gjennomsiktig rød. Kunstig godteri av jordbær og skogsbær. Smak følger nesen men er tynnere og vandig. Syre dominerer og mangler frukt og fylde. Sikkert ok som fersk vin i lavere prisklasse,men ikke min greie.

Forest berries, mushrooms, green herbs and roses. Medium sweet dark berries, soft tannins and pleasant acid, long complex and soft finish. Xynomavro grape makes me think of "a mix" of Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo. Best buy in a long time.

PnP Zalto Bx . Fersk parfymert lukt med bergamot og røde bær. Sødmefull smak med bringebær godteri. 1 uke i flaske: rein og fin lett parfymert lukt av fersk vin. Fortsatt intens fersk frukt.

They say this grape is like a Nebbiolo . It is…. But maybe more fruity. Mellows with time. Nice high tannins and acid. I’d have again.
