The softness of Merlot is supported by the lively personality of Xinomavro creating this special blend that reflects the philosophy of the Kyr-Yianni Estate.

About Kyr-Yianni
Kir-Yianni was founded in 1997 by Yiannis Boutaris, one of the leading figures in the Greek wine industry, when he left the Boutari Wine Group, the premium family wine company that his grandfather established in 1879.
Today, Stellios Boutaris, member of the fifth generation of winemakers, leads Kir-Yianni into the next phase of its history, by dynamically exploiting the cornerstones of the Kir-Yianni philosophy: the desire for innovation, respect for tradition, and true knowledge of the wine, from the grape to the end consumer.
