Flight 1 (8 Notes)

  • 2013 Ktima Voyatzi Tsapournakos 86 Points

    Greece, Macedonia

    A new wine from this producer, what seems like a nouveau version of the Tsapournakos label.

    The nose is of medium intensity, with loads of red cherries, vanilla and bubblegum.
    In the palate, the wine is round, m- tannins, buttery, full red cherries and berries flavors, med acidity and alcohol, m aftertaste
    Very good and enjoyable to drink now.

  • 2010 DioFili Pinot Noir 84 Points

    Greece, Macedonia, Kozani, Siatista

    Med + intensity in the nose, with vanilla and ripe red cherries, a few chocolate notes, beautiful and youthful.
    Dry in the mouth, m acidity, m- tannins, m+ alcohol (?), the flavors copy the nose with the cherry chocolate again, feels a bit coarse still, evident oak in the med aftertaste.
    Good quality, still fresh, will try again in the future

  • 2007 Tatsis Goumenissa 83 Points

    Greece, Macedonia, Goumenissa

    A strange wine this one. The color is a fully developed red one.
    The nose is also filled with someone would expect from the color, with med intensity, black olive, glue notes, dried red fruits, a few animal hints and a thin layer of oak underneath.
    In the palate though things get weird. The wine is dry, dried red fruits flavors, olive again, leather, med alcohol, med acidity and concentration, while all of a sudden you get attacked by m+ tannins ending with a med aftertaste.
    Good overall quality, better drink now that later.

    The nose is of medium intensity but complex with nutmeg and vanilla at first and then capsicum and black berries in the back. Youthful
    Dry, soft tannins, med acidity, alcohol, nutmeg and sweet oak notes, plum and black berry, capsicum in the med finish.
    Good quality, drink now. It feels as if something is missing, I just cant put my finger on what exactly that is.

  • 2009 Boutari Petit Verdot Experimental Wines 88 Points

    Greece, Macedonia, Naoussa

    The surprise of the day for me.

    The most aged Bordeaux like greek wine I've ever tasted. Funky, barnyard, forest floor, spicy and ripe black fruits notes, developed.
    Round in the mouth, tobacco, nutmeg, clove, medium balancing acidity, med tannins, med- aftertaste.
    Very good quality, drink now.

    Utterly decadent character...
