Orange in colour. Complex flavours of savoury red fruit - strawberry, cranberry, raspberry and tomato. Medium acidity. There’s a long finish but some tannic bitterness.
It’s a long way from an acidic and light Provence rose - this has lots of flavour and needs the right sort of food to shine. It feels like it’s still got time to evolve a bit more body and further complexity.

P: Grippy, subtly saline and edgy. Dried roses, dried raspberry, more serious/savoury than the nose. Perceivable tannins alongside a steel-like med+ acid give this wine so much life.
F: Clean, red apple skin, long

Killer Rosé with attitude. So deep blush almost orange. Structured. Yum.

Plum liquor. With air a hint of coconut. Balsamic. A bit bitter. Good acidity, very refreshing, but also serious

A world class rose at just a fraction of the price. Thymiopoulos has a Midas touch in everything he does and this is no exception.

90+ We need for rose made from high structure varietals. This shows Xinomavro's more bright/candied fruit side, but with the structure to handle it.
N: Candied strawberry, almost bubblegum, strawberry preserve, subtle cranberry juice, perfumed, subtle stemmy quality, strawberry leaf
P: Grippy, subtly saline and edgy. Dried roses, dried raspberry, more serious/savoury than the nose. Perceivable tannins alongside a steel-like med+ acid give this wine so much life.
F: Clean, red apple skin, long
