Syrah 2019 Toscana IGT Tenimenti d'Alessandro

The Syrah 2019 Rosso Toscana IGT Tenimenti d'Alessandro is an organic Tuscan red wine with an immediate profile but rich in personality, capable of combining freshness, fruit, and pleasant drinkability. It comes from the youngest vineyards of the estate and interprets Syrah in an elegant and everyday key, with an authentic style that enhances the territory of Cortona and the winery's vocation for this international grape variety.

Territory and wine style

The Toscana IGT designation offers expressive freedom and allows the Syrah grape to express itself with balance and precision. The grapes come from the Manzano Hills, in the Cortona area, at an altitude between 290 and 330 meters above sea level. The clay and loamy soils, combined with the harvest between late August and early September, contribute to creating a wine with a fragrant, agile, and well-defined profile. The choice of vinification in steel and aging between steel and cement reflects a style focused on the cleanliness of the fruit and drinkability.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a deep and bright red. On the nose, hints of underbrush, ripe blackberries, balsamic and spicy notes emerge, along with a hint of licorice root. On the palate, the wine shows silky tannins, a soft but not heavy texture, and a pleasant crunchiness of the fruit. Freshness accompanies the sip and supports a lively persistence, making this Syrah versatile and smooth, with potential for evolution over several years.

Recommended pairings

The Syrah 2019 Toscana IGT Tenimenti d'Alessandro pairs easily with flavorful but not overly structured dishes. It is ideal with cured meats, roasted white meats, grilled chicken, oven-roasted lamb, pasta with ragù, pappardelle with meat sauces, sautéed mushrooms, and medium-aged cheeses. Its spicy component also makes it interesting with slightly peppery preparations or Mediterranean cuisine with a strong character.
