Socmed has frankly made it rare for a wine to truly surprise me, but the 18’ Vrana Petra did just that. A completely unfamiliar label (and variety), it was a revelation. Strikingly mineral and brimming with energy. Aromas of red fruits, a touch of herbal smoke, black tea, dried florals, and a beautiful clementine note. It’s dense yet graceful; with plush textures, juicy acidity, and an underlying saltiness permeating the entire palate. Easily my top discovery this year. — a month ago

This was super complex. It grew on me as it breathed. 45% Assyrtiko, 35% Malagouzia, 15% Vidiano and 5% Aidani. Mangos. Hints of vanilla. Enjoyed at Koufadakis in Halkidiki. — 4 months ago

Impressed. Grows on you with every sip. Rustic winemaking style for Xinomavro, yet leading to a grandiose outcome. — 10 months ago

Read about this bottle on Noble Rot and it is indeed great despite its reasonable price.

Think of a more delicate, drier, and a bit raspberry-floral Nebbiolo. — 2 months ago

This was an excellent rose. Not as sweet and fruity as many are. This was more dry, herbal and savory. — 2 months ago

Popped and poured; no formal notes. This glass was poured from Coravin. A fun, predominantly red fruited Xinomavro that has an interesting sweet corn sort of thing going on. Red fruits and leather. Structure is firm but well managed and not punishing. Balanced. A few years of age and Coravin may have played a role in development. — a year ago
