Naoussa - Xinomavro Grape - Naoussa, GR - 16.5
 
Thymiopoulos is an excellent biodynamic producer from Naoussa that I had just reviewed recently. They are a biodynamic farm that dry crops, meaning no irrigation which is rare for these high-nitrogen, mineralic, well-draining vineyards at altitude. Their standard Is really special. It retails for around fifty dollars. This wine boasts of redcurrant, cashew, mango, and wet chalk. The discerning taster will notice some aromas of espresso bean and an interesting character of fresh strawberry and anise spice. Hibiscus lingers in Burgundian fashion, and the wine boasts earthiness of shaved white truffle. Tannin is soft and refined.
