Tenuta Sallier de La Tour La Monaca Syrah 2020
La Monaca wine, whose name comes from the historic winery, is made from special biotypes of Syrah that have shown unique adaptability on the Sallier de La Tour Estate. This is the Sicilian expression of a variety whose origin is disputed, but which has been found in the DOC Monreale terroir, specifically in the Jato valley, an ideal place to grow.

Colour

Deep ruby red.

Bouquet

Intense and variegated with notes of red fruit, black cherry and blackberry, alongside liquorice, vanilla, balsamic and a solid spicy imprint.

Flavour

Enveloping and balanced, with tannins perfectly integrated with the flavour. The finish is long with a spicy and fruity return.
