Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The 2024 Sicilian season brought a dry autumn and winter, followed by a dry spring and a hot summer without rainfall.

Grapes

100% Syrah.

Vinification

Harvest ran from the fourth week of August through the third week of September. After destemming and gentle crushing, the grapes were transferred to fermentation tanks. Alcoholic fermentation lasted approximately ten days, followed by another five days of contact with the skins. The wine was then racked and underwent malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matured in tanks for at least three months, followed by at least one month in bottle before release.

Technical data

13.5% vol. alcohol, total acidity of 5.8 g/L and pH 3.45. The listed format is 75 cl.

Tasting profile

Vibrant red with purple reflections. Aromas of jam, red berries and black pepper express the variety’s fruit and spice. The palate is rich, velvety and succulent, with pronounced yet pleasant and elegant tannins and a persistent, well-structured profile.

Serving and pairing

Pair with grilled meats, stews and mature cheeses.

Label / history
