The Karydas family grow Xinomavro on a tiny holding just south of the town of Naoussa in the center of the appellation in Macedonia. The soil is light clay and sand over a limestone base, and the winery produces about 1,000 cases of the Naoussa a year. This is an old school, traditional Xinomavro; no new wood, very little intervention. Ted Diamantis compares this wine to an old school Barbaresco; the grape variety is often compared to Nebbiolo for its aromatic similarities.
