Mavro 2017

Naoussa AOP

Grèce- Macédoine

The Taralas estate is located south of Naoussa on the slopes of Vermion. He won many international competitions. Wine critic Robert Parker has taken a liking to this single-varietal Xinomavro from 40-year-old vines.
The Mavro is made from organic vines. Spontaneous fermentation, unfiltered and unadorned bottling. Natural wine. It has matured for five months in French barrels and shows a modern style of a Naoussa wine in which the fruit is in the foreground.
