Thank you, Chris Struck! What a treat. This got the 2019 vintage off to a great start. — 5 years ago

Kali Riza Vieilles Vignes Amyndeon Xinomavro

Challenging vintage 2014 was in Northern Greece. This is Xinomavro from 60 year old vines grown at 600m elevation. Draws distinct parallels with Nebbiolo- floral nose leading into red cherry, cranberry, almond paste, leather, caraway seed and mint. Leathery tannins and decent acid retention. Finish falls away a bit, but otherwise pretty handy stuff. — 7 years ago

Naoussa Single Vineyard Xinomavro 1999

I always knew this wine would age well...16 yrs and showing some raisinated fruit, but still has vibrancy. Loads of fig and olives — 9 years ago

Terrific, but sadly marred by a bad cork, making it difficult to access. Thanksgiving wine. — 5 years ago

Kali Riza Amyndeon Xinomavro 2012

Fresh, crunchy red fruit, medium on the palate, yet with a tannic grip and with bright, juicy acidity. Highly drinkable. — 7 years ago

Diaporos Block 5 Naoussa Xinomavro 2011

Not that familiar with Greek wines. So it was a nice surprise to taste this Diaporos. Earthy and full as good as any Italian Barolo I've had. — 9 years ago

Kir-Yianni Hero Imathia Merlot 2010

Sweet cherries on the nose, plums, earthiness, and slight salinity. Palate finishes dry, with tart cherry. Medium body. Reminds me of piedmont nebbiolo. — 7 years ago

Uranos Naoussa Xinomavro 2013

More of a lush, fruit forward version of Xinomavro than the Ramnista from Kir-Yianni. Powerfully aromatic with bright fruit & silky tannins. Very good. — 8 years ago

@Kyle Volkes - haven't had it, but will look out for it. We don't see too many Greek bottles at retail, but I'm quite curious to dive in deeper. Thanks for the recommendation.

Spicy, earthy, black berries. Syrah speaks loudly. Not enough acidity to cut through the moussaka. — 9 years ago
