From magnum. Opened and served. Well round, dark fruited, silky tannin, firm core of acidity, light touch of oak. Young but approachable, and much like all good xinomavro age will only serve to make it better. 90 for now

Xinomvaro/ Merlot/ Syrah pine and rosemary on the nose, also think there's some oak here Lots of acidity Lots of very smooth dark fruit - quite polished Olives and leather, prominent but smooth tannins In a modern style but still distinctly Greek Really needs food. No hurry to drink this, in fact I'd love to see how it ages. Bit of a bargain at £10 from Theatre of Wine in Greenwich
