2023 Oenos Mittas, Naoussa Xinomavro, Macedonia, Greece

$40.00

This is a pre-order item expected to arrive mid-June 2026.

The Mittas family is one of the oldest in Naoussa, one of the most well-known appellations for the red variety Xinomavro, in northern Greece. Xinomavro offers higher acidity levels and lower alcohols while balancing the tannins. The soils in Naoussa are characterized by more clay and less sand, as well as considerable limestone, compared to neighboring areas. The climate here is continental. The style of the wines being made by Mittas is broadly traditional. Low-intervention farming (the vineyards are now fully converted and licensed as organic) and wine making are the general rule. The wine is aged for a year in French oak barrels, 25% first use, and then for an additional year in the bottle. The wine opens beautifully with a bit of time in a decanter.
