2001 Naoussa Grande Reserve, Boutari Estate, Greece

IMG_0855

Again a Naoussa Grande Reserve by Boutari. After having tried the 1997, I now have the 2001 in front of me. Nose of sweet Plums, a touch of cinnamon and spices, maybe cloves and some violet. Let’s take a sip. Ew! Palate starts awfully, very bitter with green notes… Well I get it, should at least wait 15 minutes before drinking… Second try after 30 minutes.

I think I’ve mentioned before on this site that I have a thing for Greek wines. My conviction is that they’re the next big thing as a trend on the wine market. Or maybe they already are, since I’m not a professional market watcher. At least they amaze me, sometimes in practice with the actual pleasure I have in my glass, but sometimes just in theory with the huge potential Read the rest of this entry »

Για μια πολύ συγκεκριμένη ήμερα για την Ελληνίδα φίλη μου, ήθελα να ανοίξω το κατάλληλο κρασί να κάνω μια πρόποση στην υγειά της. Για το σκοπό αυτό είχα μια φιάλη κόκκινο κρασί από την Πελοπόννησο, το οποίο, όπως και η φίλη μου, τα έχει τα χρονάκια του. ;=) . Read the rest of this entry »

Αυτο ειναι ιδιαίτερα σημαντικο αρθρο για μενα γιατι ειναι το προτιμο που γραφω στα ελλινικα. Πρέπει να προειδοποιήσω οι Έλληνες
που διαβάζουν αυτό ότι έχω μόνο την πολύ βασική γνώση της γλώσσας.
Ο λόγος που προσπαθώ να γράψω στα ελληνικά είναι να τιμηθεί και να ευχαριστηθεί η φιλη μου Faye που μου παρουσίασε Ελλάδα και με πήρε στα κτήματα κρασιού καθώς επίσης και για να παρουσιάζει σεβασμό στη θαυμάσια καλά αυξανόμενη σκηνή κρασιού της Ελλάδας. Read the rest of this entry »

Comparative Tasting: Southern Wines from Portugal, Spain, Greece and France

I think we had this topic before, but aren’t there countless excellent wines in the Mediterranean regions to discover? The difference might be that this time I can at least come up with something like a link between all these wines.
The first two stem from the Douro river region in Portugal. The third one is a Spanish Ribera del Duero, the same river than the two before but on Spanish soil.

Oscar (who brought the first 3 wines) thought it would be interesting to compare the styles of two neighbour regions. The fourth wine is a Greek Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot Cuvée called Biblia Xora, produced in the hills of Makedonia (North-Eastern Greece, no more link here : )). Finally I contributed a Southern French wine from Faugères in Languedoc.
Let’s get it on! Read the rest of this entry »
