Thymiopoulos Xinomavro Nature 2021

Thymiopoulos Xinomavro Nature 2021

Apostolos Thymiopoulos's Xinomavro Nature is made with fruit from a single vineyard, bought from an old lady in 2006. When she planted it (around 50 years ago) many of the young plants died in a drought. She couldn't afford to replace them, so ungrafted vines from some very old (pre-phylloxera) Xinomavro plantings went in. They are still going today. From these venerable vines, Apostolos makes a low-intervention wine. It is a light and bright version of Xinomavro, immensely juicy and refreshing, made to drink young.

Producer Profile

Apostolos Thymiopoulos is Greece's best red winemaker - a master of the Xinomavro grape variety in all its styles (many of which he pioneered). The core of the range is a series of Xinomavros from Naoussa, each of which offers a unique take on this world-class grape variety. The entry-level Jeunes Vignes is one of the best value wines to be found anywhere - a joyful, juicy red designed for early drinking. Earth & Sky, from older vines, is the flagship - the wine that more than any other has cemented Thymiopoulos' (and Xinomavro's) reputation for excellence around the world. At the top of the tree are three single site Naoussas from old vines - Kayafas, Aftorizo and Vrana Petra. These are outstanding by any measure, and comparisons with top Barolo are fully justified. The rest of the range continues to grow - his Rapsani from the foothills of Mount Olympus is superb, and his ageworthy Rosé de Xinomavro is one of the most complex and compelling rosés you will ever taste. Across all the wines, his signature style of silky, elegant tannins and beautiful balance shine through.
