Domaine Dalamara - Paliokalias 2017 750ml

Paliokalias Naoussa, Protected Designation of Origin is a greek dry red wine made from 100% Xinomavro. This noble variety is cultivated in a special wine region in Naoussa called PALIOKALIAS and offers a limited production of this fine P.D.O. wine. The climate of this area features warm with dry summers and mild winters. For most of the day the vines exposed to the full benefit of the sun. It is aged in oak barrels for 12 months and accompanies perfectly red meat and wild game. Better decant before serving. Serve at 16-18o C. “Paliokalias” has not sustained any cold stabilization or filtration so a small amount of sediment in the bottom of the bottle is normally. Can be cellared for at least a decade. "Xinomavro(ksee-NO-ma-vro) is as vibrant as a Greek dancer. Its medium tannins, high acidity and flavors ranging from ripe raspberry, rhubarb and black olive to sun-dried tomatoes give xinomavro the power to create a wonderful sensation on the palate. Like a red Burgundy from Santenay, Aloxe-Corton, or Chambolle-Musigny, xinomavro offers enchanting aromas, refined texture and flavors that partner well with dishes ranging from grilled tuna to roasted pork and ratatouille."(Bibliography for: "The Greek wine scene: what's old is new")
