A blend of Xinomavro from Naoussa and Mandilaria from the island of Santorini.
The Xinomavro grapes are dried outside for 3 days, which softens and concentrates the flavours and, as a result, the wine has a depth and complexity that you rarely find in an everyday red. Despite Xinomavro’s reputation as a tannic variety, this wine is anything but a brute. In fact, it’s soft and succulent and remarkably fresh with red fruits aplenty on the nose and palate.
Apostolos told us that he puts his wines through a slow and gentle maceration to tame the grape’s rustic side, leaving just a pinch of structural tannins (suggesting it has time on its side) while coaxing plenty of wonderful juicy and playful flavours out. Imagine a juice blend of strawberries and blackberries picked straight from the bush and given piquancy by a squeeze of pomegranate overlaid by flowers and sweet spices from the Xinomavro and white pepper from the Mandilaria. A really fresh and succulent wine that doesn’t know how good it is. 13.5% alc. Unoaked.
