Tasting Note: 1993 Boutari Naoussa Reserve, “Fascinating!”
One of our favorite people in the wine business and top wine blogger, Alison “TexaCali” Smith, recently tagged the above photo on our Facebook. You’ll find her tasting note below (we also tasted this incredible wine recently in Santorini). Thanks, Alison! You’re the best! (Dio Deka looks AMAZING btw.)
My superhero boyfriend Eric brought this puppy back from the winery after visiting a few years back. Fascinating! It tasted much like an old Barolo. Salty black olive, woodsy herbs, good acidity and medium tannins — very savory. We decanted around 6:30 and had the last sip at 9:30. We took it to Dio Deka — which you’ll have to check out next time your in NorCal.
