Torzi Matthews ‘Francesca Grillo Collina Calcarea’ Syrah 2020 (Preservative Free)

"Hand picked, fermented in milk vats, 30% whole bunch, then basket pressed to ex Chardonnay casks. Unfiltered. 3000 bottles produced. Incredibly purple. My goodness it’s so purple. Fresh blackberry and boysenberry, pepper and flowers, spice and grilled steak, and as such a young wine, just a little fresh bread dough. Medium-bodied, dense and tightly packed, dark chocolate and pepper with a meaty character, but still pure of fruit, raspberry pie and the like. Tannin has a shale-like quality, layer upon layer of them. Spicy and a saline edge on a long dry finish." 95pts - Gary Walsh - WineFront
