The 2006 RAMNISTA, all Xinomavro from this estate known for its work in this region with this grape, is fragrant, nuanced with oak, very earthy and powerful, with significant tannins lurking underneath. I liked the texture here and this shows considerable potential for the future. It will require some patience and the oak certainly needs to integrate better, but there is a lot here for the price. Piemonte fans can deal with this, notwithstanding the initial hit of oak, but it may have some rustic overtones to others. Drink 2011-2025.
