A Focused Expression of Syrah from Bessa Valley
Petite Syrah 2020 is a pure and concentrated expression of Syrah from the vineyards of Bessa Valley. This wine reflects the natural intensity of the variety, shaped by careful viticulture and a restrained approach in the cellar. It is a Syrah that speaks through depth and texture rather than volume.
Tasting Profile & Sensory Experience
Petite Syrah 2020 presents an opaque, deep crimson colour. The aromatic profile is rich and layered, with a distinctive focus:

  • Primary aromas: Blueberry, blackberry and ripe dark fruit.
  • Secondary notes: Violet, black pepper, subtle smoky tones, dark chocolate and a gentle savoury nuance reminiscent of cured meat.

On the palate, the wine is dense and concentrated, yet carried by fine, silky tannins. The texture brings a sense of calm elegance and balance. The finish is long, slightly spicy and marked by discreet vanilla notes that linger without excess.

Grape Variety:
  • 100% Syrah
Winemaking:

The grapes are harvested by hand with strict selection in the vineyard. Gentle destemming and further sorting take place at the winery, followed by gravity filling of concrete tanks with whole berries. Cold maceration precedes fermentation, allowing for a careful extraction of aroma and colour. Fermentation and maceration are conducted with close attention to temperature and time, followed by malolactic fermentation.
