This medium-bodied wine embodies a delightful interplay of herbal and dark fruit notes, offering a fruit intensity that is both prominent and alluring. Its high acidity lends an energizing brightness, enhancing the overall mouthfeel and making each sip invigorating. The tannins are notable yet well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. With a dry character that complements its fruit-forward profile, this wine is wonderfully versatile, making it an excellent pairing choice for a variety of dishes or enjoyable on its own.

North Macedonia
North Macedonia

Much like its southern neighbor, Greece, North Macedonia boasts a long grape growing and winemaking history, not to mention a host of exciting grape varieties. North Macedonia is regaining some of its pre-Soviet era glory through increasingly impressive (and great value) wines. There are rounded, flavorful whites made from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and the indigenous Žilavka, Temjanika and Smederevka grapes. But ultimately, this is red wine country, led by the bold Vranec and vibrant Stanušina varieties, which make complex, fruit-forward wines alongside Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and Syrah.
