Xinomavro is a red grape variety native to Greece, primarily grown in the regions of Naoussa and Amyndeon. Known for its high acidity and tannins, it produces wines that can age well, often developing complex flavors over time. The grape is often compared to Nebbiolo due to its similar characteristics. The wines made from Xinomavro typically exhibit notes of dark fruit, tomato, and earthy undertones. They are often described as having a robust structure, making them suitable for pairing with rich dishes, such as grilled meats and hearty stews.
