    July 3, 2020 - Interesting. Acidity still going strong but almost no tannin. Notes of plum skins, prunes and forest leaves and, after breathing for about 45 minutes, subtle notes of strawberry.

    November 23, 2019 - Great nose, medium light mouth; made a great pairing with spaghetti squash, beet sauce, sausage, and cheese. Tons of bright fruit, and enough tannin structure to go until the 2021 drink-by date.

    May 29, 2017 - My favorite Xinomavro until today. Light to medium bodied, fresh and balanced with some complexities. A tremendous value.

  • Yorgos Likes this wine: 91 points

    January 30, 2017 - Medium ruby clear with brownush rim. Expeeasive nose of red cherries, cranberry, sweet spice, forest floor. The palate brings broadly the same flavours with depth, very high acidity and medium weight. The wine feels fresh and young and definitelly needs some time to integrate better the oak and round its firmness.91+
