"Stefano Frascolla tells me two lessons he has learned about Syrah. The first is that it is a grape highly influenced by the soils it is planted in. Second, it is important to get the harvest window just right because Syrah has less latitude than, say, Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon when it comes to scheduling the pick. The Tua Rita 2021 Syrah Per Sempre is a beautiful wine that displays enormous richness and softness, without heaviness. There are soft fruit tones cushioned by cinnamon and sweet spice. The wine is opulent, but it also offers exciting tension at the same time."
