Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

Syrah is suited to Lazio's climate and sandy soils. Special vine-growing techniques help the grapes reach a balance between sugar levels and phenolic ripeness.

Vinification

After harvest and pressing, the grapes undergo cold skin maceration for 4–5 days at 18–20 °C, a method that highlights their natural freshness and aromas. Fermentation continues in stainless steel tanks at 25–27 °C. Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine is transferred to oak barrels for malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

5 months in oak barrels, where malolactic fermentation also takes place.

Tasting profile

Balanced and expressive, with a refined berry-and-spice aroma and a silky texture. Soft tannins, expressive fruit and a gently saline mineral note give an authentic wine.

Serving and pairing

Suited to meat dishes, at lunch or dinner.

Label / history

The label was redesigned in 2009 during an event where artists captured wine lovers' vivid emotions on canvas. Since then it has been part of a charitable project.
