It’s true that Xinomavro is similar to Nebbiolo!

Even if, in my opinion, it’s a little bit dense, liquor-forward, large in terms of ripeness of the aromas, and it has some vegetal notes that remind me of the tomato fruit and leaves, too.

Dry, full body, metallic high acidity, with an incredible salinity that talks about the island! The same aroma that we found on the nose, here you are in the mouth. High levels of iodate tannins, with medium alcohol and quite a long finish, with this salty sensation to the gums, adorable!

It's all about the vibe...

Beatrice Ruzzon pairs this Naoussa Xinomavro with the song Summer Wine by Nancy Lee

"Who says that red, structured wines aren’t suitable for summer? A fool!

It’s logical that if you drink a Xinomavro under a 40°C sunny day on the beach, you might not feel so good, but in my opinion, it’s the same if you drink a super cold glass of Champagne on the mountain at -20°C on New Year’s Eve. Don’t you think?

Drink this wine wherever you want, while listening to this song, please!"
