2020 Oenops Xinomavro 'XinomavRAW'

100% organic Xinomavro from 45-80 year old vines in Naousa, Amyntaio & Rapsani. Grapes are lightly crushed by hand, leaving a small percentage as whole-bunch for complexity. Native yeast fermentation in clay amphorae and concrete tanks. Aged for an additional 6 months in amphorae and old large barrels. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with zero sulphur additions at any time. 12.4% alcohol. Medium bodied, with wild, rustic aromas and flavors of strawberry, cherries, leather, Mediterranean herbs, sun dried tomatoes, minerals and pepper. Dry, with surprisingly tame tannins for the varietal and medium-high acidity. Give this some air to show its best and have it with something charred off the grill. For fans of rustic Nebbiolo.
