Diaporos is a blend of Xinomavro with a small quantity of Syrah that adds colour, complexity and richness. 

Appearance: Deep ruby colour.

Nose: Intense, ripe and classic xinomavro aromas of tomato, cranberry, and sour cherry. It has a thin layer of spices like cumin and cinnamon with the support of mushrooms and forest.
