Appellation Amyntaio

The Macedonia wine appellation, located in the north of Greece, is a wine region rich in history and tradition. This unique location, influenced by the Aegean Sea and shielded by the surrounding mountains, offers an exceptional terroir perfect for vine cultivation. Macedonia is predominantly known for its robust red wines made from the indigenous Xinomavro grape, often compared to Pinot Noir or Nebbiolo for its ageing potential and complex profile. These wines are characterised by aromas of red fruits, sun-dried tomato, black olive, and spices, making them a perfect match for Mediterranean dishes. Besides Xinomavro, the region is also renowned for its fresh and aromatic white wines produced from Malagousia and Assyrtiko grapes, offering notes of citrus and white flowers. Thanks to a temperate climate and meticulous winemaking, Macedonian wines charm with their balance and depth. This richness of taste and diversity makes Macedonia an essential region for wine enthusiasts eager to explore the generous and distinctive flavours of Greece.
