On the nose it reminds me almost of nebbiolo but a tiny bit more fruity. Blood orange, strawberry, a tiny bit of oak, this is very inviting. The palate is extremely well balanced, there is acid, yes, but there is width and fruit, there is a drying layer of tannins in midpalate (not unlike the ones you can find in noble piemont niebbiolo wines) along with a soft, expanding mouthfeel, and there is a long finish with that drying layer, those nice fruit notes that linger for a long while. This is really good! — 5 years ago

My first wine from Greece. Tannins are noticeable even at 5 years of age. Another Chicago wine shop recommendation and it’s not bad. Probably could use a little chill but hey after 5 hour drive home it was just an open and pour. — 6 years ago

Moroccan cuisine and Greek wine are a winning combo tonight in Montreal at dinner with my little sister. Anise, jasmine, rose, lavender, raspberry, smoke and dust together form a light bodied wine with tension and intense fragrance. Absolutely lovely and a steal too. — 8 years ago

Some good earthy notes with muted cherry or blackberry notes, and good body in the mouth. Maybe some floral aromas as well (violets?). — 9 years ago

Christmas gift from Anisa Proj, 2016. Similar in style to that made by her father in Albania. Two sided. Spiced fruit and lush velvet. Young and fun. — 9 years ago

Sadly, this wine was ever-so-slightly corked, so difficult to assess. Ripe and jammy, bitter balance. — 8 years ago

Big bodied, large tannins, raspberries, and ash like quality from the volcanic soil. Great wine for the price and amazing substitute if you don't want to spend the money on a Barolo or Barberesco. — 10 years ago

Xinomavro is the taste of mediterranean places. In the older vintages, you can taste the scents of tipical selvatic herbs. Clean an very drinkable. — 12 years ago
