Greek red with serious Pinot-meets-Nebbiolo energy 🇬🇷🍒

If you haven’t met Xinomavro, the 2021 Kir-Yianni Naoussa Village is the perfect intro. Grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Naoussa in northern Greece, this is a native grape with global appeal—think the perfume of Pinot and the structure of Nebbiolo.

Expect cherry, strawberry, tobacco and subtle spice , wrapped in firm tannins and fresh acidity. It’s savoury, and elegant—with just the right amount of grip.

From one of Greece’s most respected estates, this is a polished, food-friendly red that shows why Xinomavro is gaining global attention.

From the winemaker

What the maker says about this wine

Gold Medal at the Mundus Vini International Wine Awards 2025.

Garnet red, typical color to Xinomavro. Vibrant red and black fruit on the nose, with aromas of strawberry, cherry, and plums. A crisp and fruit-forward mouth with delicate notes of sweet spices and tobacco. Full body with good acidity and smooth tannins adding structure and leading to a pleasant finish.

As stated on the label (Cuvée Villages), our NAOUSSA is produced from a strict selection of Xinomavros grown on both our Estate (younger vines) and small vine growers’ parcels around the different areas of the PDO zone. The villages of Naoussa offer a most interesting diversification on their hilly terrain in terms of altitude, slope, soil structure, orientation etc. These conditions shape an intriguing mixture of meso-climates. Our NAOUSSA Cuvée Villages is a wine enthusiast’s introduction to the great richness of the viti-vini traditions of the region, featuring at the same time, the dynamics of Xinomavro at its heartland-terroir.
