syrah “Collezione Privata”

Another wine that Paolo had originally intended to cultivate as a blending variety for his Chianti Classico bottling, at the time Syrah was one of the accepted varieties used in Chianti Classico. He saw a real potential in the grape with his 87’ production that he planted a new vineyard entirely to Syrah, with a touch of Viognier, that vineyard is now the source for this wine.
