Isole e Olena Syrah IGT 2015

The Syrah Collezione De Marchi Toscana IGT from Isole e Olena is an impressive wine. The Syrah shines dark red in the glass. On the nose it presents concentrated and juicy aromas, smelling of black fruits, plums, herbs, black tea, leather, sandalwood, pink pepper and fir wood. On the palate very robust structure, very tasty and very balanced, soft, supple, harmonious, with fine mineral notes in the long, velvety, persistent finish.
A wine that gets even better with time.

This very characterful red wine from 100% Syrah from the Collezione De Marchi is produced only in small numbers of bottles and not every year. The grapes are harvested manually. After destemming and gentle pressing, the grapes are macerated and fermented at a controlled temperature for 10 to 12 days, followed by 12 months in French and American barriques, 20% of which are new. After bottling, the Syrah matures for another 3 years in the bottle before being sold.

The Syrah from Isole e Olena has a storage potential of over 10 years
