La Crotta di Vegneron Valle d'Aosta Syrah Crème 2021 (80%)

Valle d'Aosta Syrah Crème 2021 from La Crotta di Vegneron is a red wine made from Syrah, described as a unique, powerful and elegant Valle d'Aosta DOC. The grapes are selected with great care in the vineyard during harvest. Fermentation takes place in steel with 15 days of maceration, and final maturation is 80% in steel and 20% in second and third passage barriques. Decidedly ruby in colour with slightly violet edges. The nose is full, with evident red fruit. On the palate it has good structure, with a broad volume that harmonises the softness of the tannins throughout the sip, with pleasant fruity and spicy touches recalling the essence of the variety. It can be drunk now or kept in the cellar for a few more years for a more evolved and nuanced version.
