SYRAH Marche Syrah IGT Monacesca, an absolute novelty for our area. Deep and elegant wine, decisive expression of its varietal.

Grape born from a happy intuition of our French nurseryman, it was necessary to wait a quarter of a century to finally be able to enthusiastically confirm the empirical suggestion of the man of the Alps and finally be able to propose the interpretation of these decidedly particular grapes.

Organoleptic examination
The nose is proposed with a very distinct varietal, notes of wild pepper and cinnamon, an idea of licorice and balsamic herbs which in themselves give a fairly strong identification to the liquid.
In the mouth it is full, enveloping, very long and with a pronounced mineral and acidulous note, daughter of its terroir of origin.
