Top Macedonia Spring Break - page 2

One of the most interesting travel destinations in the attractive central Macedonia . Old neighbourhoods, exquisitely beautiful groves and fine wines. Naoussa is a city with history, interesting sights, special flavours, but also home to celebrated vineyards and wineries, making fine wines. One of the most interesting travel destinations in the already attractive central Macedonia region, gaining it the title “land of Xinomavro”. Nowadays, apart from the Xinomavro, the varieties Negoska, Naousseiko, Sefka, Prekniariko, as well as so-called Local Wines of Imathia are also grown in the area. Younger winemakers are also entering the field, slowly reviving the Naoussa wine-growing zone, which has been registered as a Protected Designation of Origin Zone. Xinomavro, of course, is still the finest red variety in northern Greece, making Naoussa one of the most famous wine-producing areas in all of Macedonia. It also retains the OPAP (Appellation of Origin of Superior Quality) designation.
