The 2013 Rose Akakies is 100% Xinomavro and dry. This has tons of great fruit this year, but in its youth it is the power and acidity that come to the foreground. xinomavro can be a great base for a pink, a grape that can add acidity and complexity. Kir-Yianni typically does it quite well. This is firing on all burners, right down to the crisp finish with tension, grip and some complexity of flavor. In its youth, it’s a beauty and a very nice bargain, too. It may not be everyone’s “typical” pink, though, if you’re thinking “sweet and soft.” It’s time to give this fine pink some props. It has certainly shown its stuff.

Subtle nose of cranberries, melon rind, wet rocks and herbs. Vivacious and modern palate with flavours of crisp small red berried fruit;ending with a long finish of lemon and stone. Dry, refreshing and pure.
