The Skyphos Xinomavro - Artisans Vignerons de Naoussa is an emblematic wine from the Naoussa area, in the heart of Greek Macedonia, where the indigenous Xinomavro grape finds its most authentic expression. This variety, known for its vibrant acidity and elegant tannins, gives the wine a refined structure and a complex character.

In the glass, it shows an intense ruby color, accompanied by aromas recalling small red fruits, spicy notes, and earthy hints. The long aging, usually in wooden barrels, enriches the material with nuances of leather and black pepper, giving depth and persistence to the palate.

An excellent companion to dishes based on red meats, lamb, and aged cheeses, this Xinomavro elegantly expresses the Greek winemaking tradition, maintaining a perfect balance between power and freshness. An intense journey into the Naoussa terroir capable of conquering the most demanding palates.
