Xinomavro is the signature red variety of
northern Greece, often compared to Pinot Noir in terms of weight (but not
perhaps in terms of quality).
Dry, hot climate red fruit in a
surprisingly light-bodied, thin wine, with a touch of pepper; Gamay with the
pepper of Grenache. Not a marriage made in heaven; more of a one-night stand
that has led to an unwanted pregnancy. The sort of red that could be drunk
chilled in summertime.
78/100
