Taralas Winery is located just outside Naoussa and cultivates about 100 acres of organic vineyards at an altitude of 300 meters. The Taralas family originated from Eastern Romulia and Nikolaos Taralas brought his viticultural knowledge to Greece in the 20th century. He had vineyards and worked in wine until the start of the second world war when his land was confiscated. Now, two generations later, after his retirement in 2006, Dimitrios Taralas decided to revive his family’s history and set up a state-of-the-art winery.
One side of the estate is cultivated with the varieties Preknadi, Cabernet Sauvignon, Moschomavro, Negoska, and Roditis while the other areas with Merlot and of course Xinomavro.

$55.00Grown high on a west-facing slope above the fog line on the northern ridge of Atlas Peak, this is a true mountain Cabernet. The palate is dense, layered, and impeccably structured, finishing long and refined. It carries the essence of red volcanic soil, wild California chaparral, and sun-drenched hillsides. All we can say is, there’s a reason the The French Laundry picked this gem up.

$58.00This Pinot Noir is shaped by brisk Pacific winds, ancient marine soils, and one of the longest growing seasons in California. It’s cool-climate Pinot at its best and is meant to be enjoyed with a slight chill, just as the sun is setting and the grill is going—cedar-plank salmon, charred leeks, broccolini, wild mushrooms, and a farro salad.

$40.00The Old Eight Cut refers to a diamond cut dating back to the 1400s using simple tools and few cuts to enhance the natural brilliance of the stone without disguising its true nature.
The first sip shows a center point of sweetness that is buttressed by dark red fruit, ripe tannins and a hint of nori that give the wine a serious edge. With air and time, the sappy spicy notes that come from partial whole cluster fermentation resonate on the finish, making this wine one with incredible depth that will drink well now and over the next 10 years.
