Syrah Mamoreccia 2008

Dark ruby-red. Reticent nose hints at deep red cherry with perfumed notes of black and white pepper. Rich and creamy in the mouth, with sweet spice and floral flavors carrying through on the persistent finish. Marmoreccia is the ancient name of the location where this wine is made, which features rich calcareous soil that looks like marble. Antonini uses 30% whole clusters for this wine because he finds syrah to be too fruity for his taste.
