Goumenissa Red Blend 2017

Aromatic & expressive - somewhere between an evolved Nebbiolo and a Lacryma - violets & wilted roses, dusted cherries, a hint of vanilla & cinnamon, sweet yet austere, ripe yet fresh. Intriguing.
Juicy cherry acidity, dry, dusty, savoury tannins, fairly light on the palate yet worth a strong presence. Perhaps a touch too sweet, but this is a really nice wine.
Biodynamic blend of Xynomavro and Negoska.

Goumenissa Xinomavro-Negoska Blend 2004

Enticing nose of prunes and leather. Nice deep flavor for the fruit with a bit of animal funk. Chewy tannins. As it opens up in the glass, the mature notes come on—more leather, olive, nice mushroom, all together in a long finish. A really lovely work from northern Greece. I grabbed it randomly on Election Night and just couldn’t focus enough to even taste it. But now I’m loving the leftover bottle! ✅🌊 — 5 years ago

Minimus Assyrtiko 2021

OKH. Full bodied and complex.

MInimus Assyrtiko appears cloudy gold colour in the glass. Lime citrus, white peach, green apple and honey nose. The aromas follow through to a full-bodied and dry palate that has a round mouthfeel, high acidity and long lasting finish.



100% Assyrtiko. The fruit comes from the protected geographical indication (PGI) slopes of Paiko. The organically cultivated vineyard in Fyliria, which is in the winegrowing region of Goumenissa, has a linear layout and medium textured sandy clay soils.

Careful hand selection and gentle crushing of the grapes before they undergo a 2-day cold maceration. Separation of the skins from juice, then spontaneous fermentation and 3 months ageing in 6-years-old French oak barrels with no additives, fining or filtration. Very low sulfur levels added before bottling. 6 months ageing in bottle before release.
