Boutari Grande Reserve Naoussa is one of the few wines to achieve the Grande Reserve designation. Greece's 'Grande Reserve' designation is only granted to wines that are barrel aged for two years (minimum), and then subsequently bottle aged for an additional two years (minimum). The approximate lifespan in a proper cellar is 12-15 years. Serve at 64°F accompanied by red meat dishes.



Deep red with brick tints


Red fruit with hints of green olive, tomato juice, and cooking spices.


Very balanced on the palate due to the unique characteristics of the Xinomavro grape making this an excellent wine to pair with food.
