Do you know what a Grand Cru is? It is one of those very specific vineyards that have been proven to produce big wines. And Naoussa by Domaine Kelesidis was born in one of them, at Yiannakochori, Naoussa. There, using organic techniques, Kelesidis family produces one of the finest Xinomavros you can come across. It joggles between modern and classic winemaking and - believe us – it is jaw dropping...
The wines of the estate are exclusively produced by the privately owned organic vines of the family. The very low yield per hectare, the grape harvest at the absolutely optimum time (with all the risks it involves) and the careful sorting of the grape, guarantee unique intensity and concentration. The faith and the special attention to the winemaking with minimum intervention method gives literally one of the best samples of Naoussa, with an absolute balance between the “old” and the “new” style of xinomavro.
If you prefer classic, traditional xinomavro with intense aromas of tomatoes, Naoussa by Domaine Kelesidis will thrill you! If, on the other hand, you like the most modern versions with plenty of fruit and flowers, Naoussa will stun you!
It definitely ages for 5-7 years, although it is addictively enjoyable now.
