Kir-Yianni Naoussa Xinomavro 2022 is a 100% Xinomavro from the Naoussa PDO in Macedonia, Northern Greece, made by the fifth-generation Boutaris family at Kir-Yianni. The grapes come from estate vineyards and selected small-grower parcels across the Naoussa villages, and the wine spends 12 months in mostly French oak before a further year in bottle. In the glass it is garnet, with fresh strawberry, cherry and plum, sweet spice, tobacco, olive tapenade and a touch of herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and focused, with velvety tannins, structured acidity and a long, savory finish of earthy spice and red fruit.

Why buy it: This is a 95-point Decanter red that also won Gold at the Decanter World Wine Awards and several other gold medals in international competitions. If you like Barolo, Xinomavro is a natural next step. It shares that savory fruit, firm acidity and fine tannin, in a fresher, more approachable style that is ready to enjoy now and can be cellared until 2032. It is a great way to discover Greek wine through one of its most respected producers.

When to open it: Open it for an autumn or winter dinner, a dinner party where you want to pour something new, or as a gift for a friend who loves Italian reds. Serve it lightly chilled, at 59-61°F (15-16°C), and decant for 20-30 minutes. It pairs well with grilled lamb chops, Bolognese and mushroom risotto.

Kir-Yianni was founded in 1997 by Yiannis Boutaris, one of the leading figures in the Greek wine industry, when he left the Boutari Wine Group, the premium family wine company that his grandfather established in 1879.

Today, Stellios Boutaris, member of the fifth generation of winemakers, leads Kir-Yianni into the next phase of its history, by dynamically exploiting the cornerstones of the Kir-Yianni philosophy: desire for innovation, respect for tradition and true knowledge of the wine, from the grape to the end consumer.

Grapes are sourced from estate vineyards and selected parcels from small growers across Naoussa villages, offering diverse soils (limestone, clay, sandy) and altitudes.

A mild winter was followed by a cooler-than-average spring, with exceptionally wet conditions throughout May and June. July and August were hot and dry, while rainfall at the very end of summer replenished soil moisture ahead of the final stages of ripening. Cool nights and warm days throughout September encouraged a slow, even ripening of the grapes. Harvest of Xinomavro began on 26 September, with the fruit reaching excellent quality.

The grapes are cooled at 10 °C and proceed to rigorous grape selection on conveyor belt. Cold soaking for 5 days at low temperatures followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at temperatures of 20 – 23 °C for 12 to 15 days. Malolactic fermentation and maturation in mainly Frenck oak barrels of 225 and 500 liters in a combination of new and old use for 12 months. Once maturation is complete, the final blend is made. After bottling, the wine stays in the cellar for a year before market release.
