The 2005 XINOMAVRO is light, bright and relatively low in alcohol (12.5%). It is one of the best intersections of value and price in the Vaeni lineup. It lacks much mid-palate concentration, but has a certain youthful lushness on first attack. That disappears with air, as the acidity takes over and it becomes more angular and leaner and somewhat austere and steely. The tannins have some grip on the finish. It is a wine that can age for a few years, but drinks nicely now. This might be a wine to reach for when you’d normally be thinking of a basic Barbaresco. Drink now-2013.
