Skyphos Xinomavro 2019 - Artisans Vignerons de Naoussa
A really unique BBQ red, the Greek Xinomavro roughly translates to ‘sour black’ and the thick skins of this grape provide its renowned tannic quality and big acidity.
This bottle, from Artisans Vignerons de Naoussa's ‘Skyphos’ label, comes from the Greek region of Macedonia and has all of that in spades. Dry and bright red fruits balanced with a savoury, herbal, olive-tapenade finish, this 2019 vintage has a little bottle age that really enhances the wine and a few more years of ageability in it.
Artisans Vignerons de Naoussa is a union of growers based in the northern Greek region of Macedonia. Their focus is on sustainable viticulture, low-intervention making and especially on growing and bottling the Xinomavro native to the hills of Naoussa with these philosophies in mind.
Their “Skyphos” range - that includes a bright and fruity example of Xinomavro- is brilliantly successful at highlighting the terroir of this unique region, that is marked by hot summers, cool breezes and a diverse landscape.
