Tasting note
Sicilian Syrah, fragrant with violets, liquorice and black pepper, the mouth a punnetful of blackcurrants.
Viticulture
Black, compacted soil in remote Trapani provides the perfect growing conditions for Syrah vines. Resistant to drought and rich in flavour-giving silt, it allows grapes to benefit hugely from the warm Sicilian summer days, developing intense and rounded flavours.
Vinification
Fermentation is conducted for 12-15 days at controlled temperatures between 24-30°C, with daily pump overs. The wine is then matured in a combination of stainless steel tanks and French oak barriques for 2-4 months.
Food Match
The intense complexity of this Syrah mean it marries beautifully with rich dishes of game stews, or well-seasoned red meats. It would also complement aged Sicilian cheeses – think Provola or Pecorino for the perfect pairing.
