Wines of Naoussa Tasting
A free wine tasting dedicated to xinomavro drops from the Greek region of Naoussa.
Overview
So, you've done your dash with all the chardy, the big shirazes and even that obscure Italian varietal your mate got you onto over summer. Now, it's time to scope out some fresh wine talent — and the Builders Arms Hotel is just the place to do so.
On Monday, March 6, winemakers from the vineyard-filled Greek region of Naoussa will be dropping by the Fitzroy pub to show off their wares at a free evening wine tasting. They'll be pouring 14 different wines for you to sample, with the lineup centred on Greece's xinomavro varietal — a style that boasts similarities to Piedmonte's nebbiolo.
Sip, swirl and unearth some new favourite drops as you chat to the winemakers about this rich, tannic, full-bodied wine. The kitchen will also be putting on some nibbles to keep you fuelled throughout the evening.
Entry is free, although you'll need to reserve your spot online as capacity is limited.
