VENETO IGT
SYRAH
It’s a noble vine with ancient origins that express itself with great elegance also on Berici Hills. It’s characterized by intensity and complexity that blossom after a short stop in wood and at least a year of rest in the bottle. Syrah is a full and consistent wine, never too rough where you can find the pleasant spiciness of black pepper and nutmeg, the fruity notes of plum and morello cherry and the characteristic balsamicity of aromatic herbs.
