Ktima KelesidiXinomavro Naoussa 2018
About this product
The rather light color of red Naoussa is deceptive, as these tend to be quite characterful wines, evoking Mediterranean fragrances of herbs, olives, and sun-drenched tomatoes. They often have an earthy edge and almost always punchy tannins, which resolve after a few years in bottle. Ageing is definitely worthwhile, and not only softens the wines but adds complex, subtle notes of leather, mushrooms, wet leaves. Repeatedly during our tasting, we pointed out how this is a similar combination of power and haunting perfumes as we find in Nebbiolo.
