In the Fall, we descend into shorter days and the transition from light to dark. We are walking in the shadows, searching for something we can connect with. 

The name Xinomavro itself is a conjunction of the Greek words for acid and black which is a fairly accurate description for this grape which characteristically has both high tannin and high acid. This is the grape that can produce a beautiful, bright sparkling wine as well as an inky black, heavier red. 

The only question left to ask yourself is which one do I want to try? Cheers!
