About the wine
Smooth, easy-drinking Greek red with bags of character made from sustainable vineyards
-
This is the kind of wine that Pinot Noir lovers will go gaga for. Nikos’ Xinomavro Limniona Red is a fresh and vibrant style of wine made using two old Greek grape varieties Nikos sourced from sustainable vineyards around northern Greece.
-
A smooth, easy-drinking red with bags of character. Light, fresh red fruit aromas abound on the nose and follow through nicely on the palate where you get yummy cherries, raspberries and a hint of spice. This is the sort of red you could even slightly chill, especially in the summer when the sun’s baking hot and you need a little refresher to take the edge off.
-
Inspired by Angels and made possible by Nikos’ many years experience with native grape varieties, delicious wines like this show the incredible potential in authentically Greek wine. Yamas Nikos! You’re making your country proud.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Nikos Karatzas
- Nikos cut his teeth in one of the world epicentres for winemaking, Bordeaux, learning the tricks of the trade as a budding Oenologist before returning to his Greek homeland to roll up his sleeves and put his skills to practice.
- In that same year, Oenops Wines was founded and Nikos was quick to learn how he wanted his winemaking vision to take shape. He spent 24 hours of his first harvest destemming grapes by hand to make sure not an ounce of flavour was lost - that's how much quality means to Nikos.
- He works in immense detail in the vineyard and the winery with indigenous varieties from diverse Greek regions, to bring you authentic, elegant and super delicious wines that will transport you to Greece with one sip.
