About this Wine

Apperance
Garnet red, typical colour to Xinomavro.

Aroma
Vibrant red and black fruit on the nose, with aromas of strawberry, cherry and plums.

Palate
A crisp and fruit-forward mouth with delicate notes of sweet spices and tobacco. Medium body with good acidity and smooth tannins adding structure and leading to a pleasant finish.

Region notes
As stated on the label (Cuvée Villages), our NAOUSSA is produced from a strict selection of Xinomavros grown on both our Estate (younger vines) and small vine growers’ parcels around the different areas of the PDO zone. The villages of Naoussa offer a most interesting diversification on their hilly terrain in terms of altitude, slope, soil structure, orientation etc. These conditions shape an intriguing mixture of meso-climates. Our NAOUSSA Cuvée Villages is a wine enthusiast’s introduction to the great richness of the viti-vini traditions of the region, featuring at the same time, the dynamics of Xinomavro at its heartland-terroir.

About Greek Wines

Greece is a country with a long and rich wine history, it is said that the origins of winemaking here date back 6,500 years. Between the mainland and the country’s numerous islands, many wine styles exist, made mostly from one of Greece’s 300 indigenous grape varieties.

During the 1960’s, Retsina became the national beverage and was associated with Greece and Greek wine worldwide. Retsina is a white or rose wine that derives part of its flavour from pine resin. A storage method from ancient times, pine resin was used to seal wine vessels, keeping air out and infusing the wine with resin aroma. The traditional grape for Retsina is Savatiano with Assyrtiko and Rhoditis sometimes blended in.

Assyrtiko is one of the most popular Greek white grape varieties. From the island of Santorini with volcanic soils, it does not lose its acidity as it ripens. It is sometimes compared to Riesling but with a saline character.

Notable red varieties from Greece include full bodied and fruity Agiorghitiko, Macedonia’s savory and tannic Xinomavro, and Mavrodaphne, used commonly to produce fortified wine in the Peloponnese.
