Best known in Bordeaux, Italy, Chile
Soft, round and approachable. Plum, black cherry and chocolate, with gentle tannins and a plush texture. It leads the blends of Bordeaux's Right Bank, including Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, and makes generous, easy-drinking reds all over the world.
Best known in Northern Rhône, Washington State
A dark, spicy red grape. Blackberry, black pepper, smoked meat and violets, with firm structure. Elegant and savoury in the Northern Rhône, in places like Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; in Australia the same grape goes by Shiraz.
Best known in Naoussa, Amyndeon
Often called Greece's answer to Nebbiolo. High acidity, firm tannins and flavours of sour cherry, tomato, olive and spice. Pale but powerful, it ages beautifully, and Naoussa is the place to start.
Greece
Northern Greece, with a cooler, more continental climate than the islands. Xinomavro is the signature red grape: high in acid and tannin, with tomato, olive and red-fruit notes that develop beautifully with age. Assyrtiko, Malagousia and international grapes add fresh whites. Thessaloniki is the region's main city.
Macedonia, Greece
Founded in 1997 by Yiannis Boutaris in Macedonia, Greece, with a focus on terroir-driven wines. Love Wine stocks a Paranga white and red, plus an Assyrtiko from young, high-altitude vines in Amyndeon. Fresh, honest Greek wine.
