Markovitis Winery, Xinomavro Markovitis Naoussa 1997 Galicia black plums and blackberries withOne of the best and most historic examples of Xinomavro produced in Naoussa. Ripe red fruit, leather, red pepper and tobacco the nose is impressive right from the start. Moderate body with robust but well integrated tannins combined with lovely linear acidity. Spicy fruit dominates the mid palate and remain there in the long peppery aftertaste. A modern take on Xinomavro.
