Syrah grows on quaternary sandy marine and fluvial sediments which alternate with lake and marsh deposits and carbonate crusts typical of backshore areas. Soil is clay loam, ph alkaline, well structured and pebbly; the presence of active lime and high concentration of micro nutrients exalt the spicy component of the wines produced from grapes grown on this soil. |
