Why do we love it?

Do you know what a Grand Cru is? It is one of those very specific vineyards that have been proven to produce big wines. And Naoussa by Domaine Kelesidis was born in one of them, at Yiannakochori, Naoussa. There, using organic techniques, Kelesidis family produces one of the finest Xinomavros you can come across. It joggles between modern and classic winemaking and - believe us – it is jaw dropping...

The wines of the estate are exclusively produced by the privately owned organic vines of the family. The very low yield per hectare, the grape harvest at the absolutely optimum time (with all the risks it involves) and the careful sorting of the grape, guarantee unique intensity and concentration. The faith and the special attention to the winemaking with minimum intervention method gives literally one of the best samples of Naoussa, with an absolute balance between the “old” and the “new” style of xinomavro.

If you prefer classic, traditional xinomavro with intense aromas of tomatoes, Naoussa by Domaine Kelesidis will thrill you! If, on the other hand, you like the most modern versions with plenty of fruit and flowers, Naoussa will stun you!

It definitely ages for 5-7 years, although it is addictively enjoyable now.

NAOUSSA 2018 - DOMAINE KELESIDIS

PAIR IT

Pair it with wild boar in the hull, goat in the oven, pork with plums.

Wild boar casserole with tagliatelle pasta

  • 1 kilogram of wild boar
  • 1 carrot coarsely chopped
  • 1 celery coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 bunch of fresh onions finely chopped
  • 1/2 bunch of parsley finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 tbsps. of mustard
  • 3 tbsps. of lemon juice
  • 5 allspice berries
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper
  • 200 g olive oil
  • 250 ml red wine (preferably xinomavro)
  • 500 g of tagliatelle

 

Cut the wild boar in portions. Put all the ingredients in a bowl, except olive oil and pasta. Marinate for at least 12 hours.

When we are ready for cooking, remove the boar from the marinade, drain it to leave the many liquids and sauté with the oil until it gets golden-brown. Add the marinade and lower the heat to simmer for 30 minutes.

Transfer them all to the casserole and put it in a preheated oven, at 150 ° C. Stir regularly to keep liquids from sticking. If more liquids are needed, add some vegetable broth.

Boil the pasta according to the instructions (preferably al dente).

Garnish with a little chopped parsley over the plate.
