A softer style of Xinomavro, with savory spice and cherry/strawberry fruit aromas. On the palate, an integrated blend of elegant berries and spice offer smooth, everyday sipping with dimension. Structed and ageable, the wine is a versatile food pairing choice—think pasta dishes, pizza and chicken.  — S.K.  (12/15/2008)

Chrisohoou 2006 Xinomavro (Naoussa)

  1. $16
A delicate nose of cola, cocoa powder and white pepper leads this food-friendly red from Greece. Balanced minerality and a delicate fruit character offer a lighter touch than many Greek reds. Cocoa, plum and spice dominate. Pair with grilled lamb, sausages.  — S.K.  (3/1/2011)

Sweet cedar, cigarbox and allspice lead the nose on this embraceable Greek red. On the palate, soft tannins, bright red fruit and spice offer a clean, dry character. The finish is smoky and lingering. Not overly complicated but definitely a fine Greek red.  — S.K.  (3/1/2011)
