Lot 339 | 2021 IGT Terre Siciliane da Uve Leggermente Appassite Syrah 750ml

Lot 339
2021 IGT Terre Siciliane da Uve Leggermente Appassite Syrah

Expressive on the nose with red cherries, plum sauce, and black olive haloed by blueberry and tar. The entry is luscious and earthy with delicate leather and bramble interwoven with cigar box and black cardamom, medium acidity, and swept by polished, grainy, horizontal tannins. The finish is long, barrel-kissed, and resonant with blueberry and plum coulis. For fans of Syrah, Amarone, and Ripasso.

Interesting Syrah

"If tasting blind, would not have guessed Syrah. It seemed more like darker grenache, or maybe a Nero blend. Still liked it."

Jim A. (4/5)

Yummy Italian

"Easy drinking out of the bottle. Great value."

Hallie Y. (5/5)

Excellent Italian Syrah!

"Berries and red fruit on the nose, sour cherries and soft tannins on the palate. Lingering stone fruit on the finish…overall very pleasing. Enjoyable enough that I picked up another case after trying the first bottle!"

Micah F. (5/5)

Good Sicilian take on Syrah

"I ordered all the Sicilian wines offered, tasted and reordered. I skewed towards this wine. I thought it was very good and have enjoyed trying side by side with Syrah from other regions. I like the Sicilian take on this grape."

Jeff M. (4/5)

Concentrated but not over the top

"A deep a delicious wine. To me, it tastes similar to a northern Italian ripasso. Great mouthfeal, but not heavy. Wonderful nose."

David T. (5/5)

Mark (4/5)

Christopher T. (5/5)

Good QPR!

"Plus a nice surprise overall. Certainly benefits from some air then this is a pleasant, easy drinker - with food or away from the table. Would buy again. Crowd pleaser!"

Now We're Talking

"Syrah is my jam and this didn't disappoint! From the first swirl, I was hit with sun-ripened blackberries, dried figs, and hints of wild herbs. Straight up Mediterranean allure. Perfectly balanced, delicious! dN knocked it out the park on this allocation."
