One of my favorites from two weeks in Italy. Made in a new-world style, this Syrah was fantastic.

Nose of liquid smoke, bacon fat and black pepper. Syrah from Italy is cool.

Cortona DOC Syrah 2012, 13.5%.
Bottle tasted in October 2014.
A beautiful wine by very well-known winemakers Marchesi Antinori. Syrah from Arezzo province is truly interesting: rich and enveloping nose, mature red fruits, a little spicy but very elegant.
Full-bodied in the mouth, with smooth tannins. Great body and persistence.
