Located in Naoussa, Ktima Kir-Yianni is one of the most important Greek wineries. It was founded in the late 90s by Yiannis Boutaris, one of the first winemakers to understand and bet on the potential of the indigenous Xinomavro grape variety. The Kir-Yianni estate, which owns approximately 58 hectares of vineyards between Naoussa and Amyndeon, is led today by Stellios Boutaris.
Diaporos is one of the company's most representative wines. A small amount of Syrah is added to the Xinomavro grapes, coming from the Naoussa vineyard, which adds a spicy touch. Fermentation takes place in 225-liter French oak barrels, where the wine remains to mature for 22 months.
The wine has an intense color with purple tones. The nose is complex, rich, and broad with fruity aromas of cherry and blueberry, black cherry and plum, followed by spicy hints of pepper, vanilla, and cinnamon. There are also herbaceous and balsamic notes and some nuances of chocolate and tobacco. On the palate, it is round and generous, rich and full with firm and well-integrated tannins and a long, persistent, and spicy finish. It is a wine with great character that pairs well with beef steak but also with game.

Kir-Yianni Diaporos 2019
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
