The nose is fruity, elegant and offers some power and depth, a nice stretch and a fine, intense grain. There are notes of boysenberry, blackcurrant, bigarreau cherry and a hint of liquorice combined with touches of green pepper, black olive, nutmeg, as well as discreet hints of crushed berries and an imperceptible touch of tobacco (in the background). The palate is mineral, balanced and reveals fluidity, good definition, some depth and a nice freshness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fresh/pulpy blackberry, bright/fresh red plum small notes of crushed black cherry combined with hints of fresh raspberry, fresh flowers as well as a subtle hint of blueberry, liquorice and discreet vanilla. A fine hint of chocolate/vanilla in the background.

Dunkel leuchtendes Rubinrot. In der Nase sehr würzig, leicht animalisch, im Nachhall nach reifen und satten Kirschen, wiederholt pfefferwürzig. Am Gaumen dann mit klarer und strahlender Frucht, unterlegt von feiner Würze, zeigt griffiges Tannin, saftig, im Finale leicht salzig, bleibt stoffig und lange am Gaumen.

Balsamic notes of camphor mingle with ripe black-skinned berry, leather and Mediterranean brush aromas. The firm palate offers cassis and star anise alongside taut, fine-grained tannins. It closes on a coffee bean note. Drink through 2024. Kerin O’Keefe

Tinge il calice nelle sfumature violacee intense e si racconta nei sentori di prugne blu, foglie di tè verde, eucalipto e mallo di noce. Balsamico e ricco di identità regala note di cacao in polvere ed asfalto caldo in sottofondo. Corpo pieno, tannini vellutati di notevole bellezza perfettamente polimerizzati e privi di spigoli ed un finale di scorrevole progressione. Meglio dal 2021.

Espressivo al naso mostra sentori di ciliegie disidratate, prugne, lamponi, ribes e fiori di tiglio. Il sottofondo è ricco di lavanda, succo di pompelmo e cedro e rivela energia e carattere. Corpo pieno, tannini mordenti e vibranti ed un finale di media-lunga persistenza. Uno dei Syrah più intriganti made in Sicily. Bevi ora.

Sattes, funkelndes Rubin mit Violett. Offen, einladende Nase mit intensiven Noten nach reifen Holunder- und Brombeeren, im Hintergrund nach weißem Pfeffer und Sandelholz. Saftig in Ansatz und Verlauf, zeigt pralle, dunkelbeerige Frucht, knackig und frisch. Viel süßer Schmelz, feinmaschiges Tannin.

The nose isn't very expressive but the palate offers dried black cherry, coffee, mocha, oak, licorice and the heat of alcohol alongside velvety tannins. It lacks the fruit richness needed to stand up to the oak and evident alcohol.

A rich and intriguing Syrah the grapes of which are from low-pruned vines that are almost next to the sea. The color is a dense red with prune reflections and the bouquet is indulgent and opulent, with scents of sour cherry and blueberry, balsamic notes, laurel and cloudberry. The mouthfeel is broad and bold, with rotund and polished tannins, notes of cacao and spice with the freshness of underbrush and a very long finish.

Esplosivo e decisamente coinvolgente un Syrah moderno, teso e vibrante nel profilo sensoriale che alterna fiori blu di ibisco e giacinto a passiflora, guaranà , magnolie, gardenie, sambuco e gerani. Corpo pieno, avvolgente e davvero setoso nel sorso mostra succo e concentrazione e chiede di tornare al calice grazie alla potenza e alla delicata dolcezza della matrice. Bevi ora.
