Ramnista 2015, Kir-Yianni

Date Tasted: 11/2021

Ramnista is the vineyard's name where the grapes were collected to make this distinctive wine that tries to point out the elegant side of Xinomavro. 

Appearance: Deep ruby colour.

Nose: Intense red fruits like cranberry, raspberry and red cherry with hints of canned fruits and a thick layer of spices. Rosemary and forest add the final touch.

Palate: It is excellent on the palate, structured and balanced. The high tannins create a backbone, and the high acidity adds freshness to make the years ahead look prosperous for development. An extended, complex finish leaves the best possible end.

Drink or Hold: It is palatable now, but it will be even better after five years.

Food Pairing: Lamb chops or American style bbq ribs will be perfect.
