Syrah Ancient Tradition: a journey through the lands of the sun
Syrah, known for its long tradition and millenary history, is a wine that has its roots in the warm and sunny vineyards of the Mediterranean basin. This subcategory of "Special Wines" represents a tribute to the enological richness that Syrah has built over the centuries, becoming a symbol of excellence and variety among the "Great Wines".
Originally from the Rhône region in France, Syrah is now cultivated in many of the world's most renowned wine regions, including Australia, where it is known as Shiraz, California, and various areas of our beautiful country. Each territory gives Syrah its own particular imprint, but what remains unchanged is the ability of this grape variety to express power and complexity.
The production of Syrah is an art passed down from generation to generation. The grapes are harvested at the right level of ripeness to ensure an optimal concentration of sugars and aromas. After harvest, the grapes may undergo prolonged maceration, a process that enhances the tannic structure of the wine, allowing it to evolve beautifully over time. Often aged in barrels, Syrah develops a unique aromatic complexity characterized by spicy and toasted notes.
Syrah Ancient Tradition stands out for its fascinating organoleptic profile. On the nose, this great wine offers intense scents of ripe red fruits, such as blueberries and plums, accompanied by delicate floral notes of violet. The olfactory picture is completed by spicy nuances of black pepper, cocoa, and tobacco, which intertwine in a harmonious and enveloping bouquet. On the palate, Syrah presents itself with a full and velvety body, supported by a fine and well-integrated tannic texture. The persistence is long and satisfying, leaving a pleasant sensation of warmth and softness.
Tasting a Syrah Ancient Tradition is an experience that tells of distant lands and ancient traditions, a sensory journey that captivates both enthusiasts and newcomers to the world of wine. Perfect to pair with flavorful and structured dishes, such as roasted meats, game, or aged cheeses, Syrah is also suitable for enjoying on its own to fully appreciate its complexity.
