'Lusirà' Syrah Sicilia DOC Baglio del Cristo di Campobello 2018

Lusirà Syrah Sicilia DOC is a full-bodied red wine, with a strong taste, with marked fruity aromas, typical of the Sicilian territory. Produced by the Baglio del Cristo di Campobello winery, an ambitious Italian company, located on the hills of the same name in the province of Agrigento. Made with 100% Syrah grapes, obtained from the original vine of the Rhone Valley, cultivated on calcareous and chalky soils, exposed to a warm climate, but mitigated by breezes from the nearby Sicilian channel. The grapes are harvested manually, then undergo a soft pressing and fermentation in steel for eighteen days. The refinement takes place first in French oak barriques for fourteen months and then in the bottle for another twelve. It is an elegant and structured wine that gives every sip the typical minerality of Sicilian soils. Lusirà Syrah Sicilia DOC is drunk immediately, but by letting it rest for a few more years in the cellar, its aromas evolve and acquire intensity, depth and elegance. Excellent.
