Tasting Notes
Expecting the 2022's... Stefano's Syrah echoes that of the Rhone Valley, showing rich, plush red fruits intermingled with fresh minerality and white pepper notes. Incredibly well polished yet wild at heart all at the same time. Hedge row berries and freshly picked herbs keep you fixated. This could quite possibly be the find of 2024.

Stefano told us... “My farm was born from a wish that matured over the years, to be able to produce a grand Syrah through the farming traditions of my family, passion, knowledge in the world of wine and the practice of biodynamics. In order to reach this objective, I had identified an area of Chiuso di Cortona, named Poggiobello di Farneta, in the middle of which, as though it were a cru, there are two well exposed hills to south, south-east, closed within an old pebbly street to the west, a grove to the south and a ridge to the east to close the panorama. Today, my intention is to propose a natural practice as an alternative to conventional agriculture through the cultivation of cereals, vegetables and fruit to the breeding of animals, together with the production of a great Syrah!”
