Tasting notes :
Syrah is a noble Mediterranean grape variety which gives the best of itself in --
bright dry places like our Sicily.
Because of this we have a great belief in the future of this variety in our island.
From an extraordinary vine, Maroccoli at about 400 metres,
in an unpolluted place, produces an interpretation of Syrah in a modern key --
while respecting the characteristics of the variety.
Powerful and imposing, this is a wine for long aging.
Tasting notes : Sweet oriental spices and a fleeting recall of
toasted cocoa accompany the wine in all its tasting processes.
Vinification : Destalking followed by 21 days on the skins at 25⁰C; after racking,
malolactic fermentation follows in --stainless steel and wood; maturation in barriques for 14 months.
