Costa di Nugola Syrah is marked by a distinctive, luminous red, and releases generous draughts of dark cherry and raspberry, wild red berry fruit, and smooth vanilla. It is a wine that is crisp, savoury, and thoroughly elegant.

| Wine maker notes |
A generous, multi-layered aromatic spectrum, veined with crisp nuances of menthol, followed by clean-edged fragrances of dark red berries, in particular blackberry and blueberry. Last to emerge are notes of rich spice, where elegant hints of black pepper and cinnamon predominate, capped by pungent tobacco leaf.
It shows exquisite balance on the palate: a subtle weave of dense tannins integrates nicely with a full-bodied, beautiful structure, and a thread of crisp acidity acts as an elegant foil to its heady, opulent alcohol. It unfurls an almost endless finish that is complex and appealing.
