An incredible story as well a great wine. Back in the early 2000s, The Vineyard team at Feudi di San Gregorio discovered three bush vines in their Anglianico vineyards that were not Anglianico grapes. After DNA research, it was determined the vines were the ancient Sirica grape varietal. FSG propagated these vines and eventually ended up with one and a half hectares of this grape. First release of a Sirica Single varietal was back in 2009. This vintage is a terrific red wine. Aromas of dark berries, leather, herbs and violets. Flavors of black cherry, blueberry, black pepper and cloves. Velvety tannins and fresh tasting. Beautifully balanced. This one is special and will get better with age. I need to find more! — 8 years ago

The 2020 Donna Chiara displays a stunning mix of blackberries, cloves and crushed violets. It’s elegant, supple, and spicy. Zesty acidity and sour citrus invigorate it’s tart Anglianico fruit. Leather and earth tones add savory character as the 2020 finishes with a gentle tug of tannin (Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2023) — 3 years ago

Nose had white vinegar but not in a fouled way. It stayed a bit hot but I don't have a lot of experience with anglianico grapes. Medium bodied. Kind of interesting.
