Feudo Zirtari Nero d'Avola Syrah (75cl, 14%)

A Sicilian red blend of 55% Nero d'Avola and 45% Syrah, bottled at 14% ABV in a 750ml bottle under the Sicilia IGT designation. Fruit comes from Sicilian vineyards at about 200 metres above sea level in clay soils with moderate limestone. The Nero d'Avola supplies structure and dark-fruit character, while Syrah adds aromatic complexity and a peppery edge. The nose shows cherry, raspberry, spice and an earthy undertone. The palate has ripe cherry and red berry fruit, a full yet elegant body, tartness and rustic tannins. The finish is medium, with red-fruit sweetness and peppery warmth.
