General Information
Stemmari Syrah IGT is a characterful red wine from Sicily, made from 100% Syrah. Thanks to the warm, sunny climate of the island, the grapes ripen perfectly, resulting in a Syrah with ripe fruit notes, soft spiciness, and velvety tannins.
The vineyards of Stemmari are sustainably managed, with a focus on water conservation and respect for the natural environment. After fermentation, part of the wine ages for several months in French oak barrels, adding depth and complexity without overpowering the fruit.
