Falesco 's Tellus Syrah is born from 100% Syrah grapes grown in the Montefiascone area (RM). The vineyards of origin insist on sandy soils, at an average altitude of 300 metres above sea level. The winemaking process began with a cold pre-maceration carried out at a temperature of 18° C - 20° C for 4-5 days which allowed to best enhance the freshness and primary aromas of the grapes. Alcoholic fermentation then took place - which transformed the fruit sugars into alcohol - at a temperature between 25° C and 27° C. Finally, the wine was transferred to 2nd passage barriques where it underwent malolactic fermentation and where it was aged for 5 months before being marketed. The original label, revised in 2009, was conceived on the occasion of an event held in Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome during which a group of artists undertook to impress the impressions of passionate tasters on canvas.

SYRAH TELLUS FALESCO: TASTING

Syrah Tellus is presented in the glass of an intense ruby red colour with purple reflections. Aromas of cherry and ripe red fruit emerge on the nose, combined with hints of vanilla and dark spices and delicate balsamic notes. The taste is rich and enveloping, characterised by a well-integrated tannic texture and a good fresh-savoury shoulder that invites to the second sip. At the table, it goes well with cured meats and semi-aged and aged cheeses but also with land recipes based on red meats or game.
