Planeta Maroccoli Syrah 2020
Syrah is a noble Mediterranean grape which gives its best in bright, dry places like Sicily. Because of this, the company greatly believes in this variety's future in Sicily. This interpretation of Syrah is produced in a modern style, respecting all the characteristics of the vine, from an extraordinary vineyard – Maroccoli at about 400 metres, in an unspoilt area. Powerful and impenetrable, this is a wine destined for long ageing.

Colour

Deep ruby.

Bouquet

Dark sensations of cocoa, freshly wilted red roses, leather, black pepper and liquorice root give this nose a mysterious character, then raise balsamic aromas of camphor and puffs of cherries in alcohol.

Flavour

Balanced taste with soft tannins and subtle freshness in the finish.

Pairing

It pairs with marinated and grilled lamb cutlets, accompanied by mint or even parmigiana with smoked Provola cheese.
