Syrah Sensi
IGT SICILIAN LANDS
In the beating heart of Sicily, among the volcanic expanses of Bronte, comes Syrah ‘Sensi’ IGT Terre Siciliane, an oenological gem that embodies the power and elegance of the Syrah grape variety. Cultivated at 700 meters above sea level on volcanic soil enriched with potassium and iron, this wine is the result of careful grape selection and vinification involving careful maceration and fermentation with selected yeasts, all culminating in maturation in Slavonian oak barrels. The result is a purplish-red Syrah with an intensely complex nose that opens to spicy and vegetal notes, enriched by red fruit preserves. On the palate, it reveals great structure, with velvety tannins supporting a balanced alcohol content and a lingering finish of rare spicy elegance.
