This morning Tuscan Syrah IGT Organic

From an old Syrah vineyard planted in the early 80s, in semi-carbonic maceration

A spicy and lively Syrah, where the pepperiness of the grape variety meets the freshness of the carbonation

The Stamattane Syrah from Fattoria di Sammontana

Stamattane comes from an old, half-hectare Syrah vineyard, planted in the early 80s, and is produced in just 1.000 bottles. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel with whole bunches, through a semi-carbonic maceration lasting approximately seven days, which enhances the grape's freshness and lively aromas. After fermentation, the wine ages for approximately eight months, partly in cement and partly in demijohns—a charming, artisanal choice. Grown organically and biodynamically, it is a Syrah with an unusual and captivating character: spicy and peppery, as befits the varietal, yet rendered lively and dynamic by carbonic vinification. A true gem for those seeking an original red with great personality.
 
 
 

The roots of this Syrah lie between the Rhone and Tuscany

Syrah is one of the world's great red grape varieties, native to the Rhône Valley in France, where it produces intense wines with unmistakable spicy notes of black pepper. Transplanted to Tuscany, it finds a unique and fascinating expression in these soils and climates. The semi-carbonic maceration technique, made famous by Beaujolais wines, involves the fermentation of whole bunches and enhances their fruity freshness, producing immediately drinkable wines. Aging part of the grapes in a demijohn is a gesture that harks back to the most authentic rural tradition. Fattoria di Sammontana combines these influences in a wine that is both international and profoundly artisanal.
 
 
 

Choosing Stamattane Syrah means taking care of yourself

A wine produced organically and biodynamically, from an old vineyard and using natural vinification, represents a conscious choice for a more authentic experience. Spontaneous fermentation of whole bunches preserves the original characteristics of the grapes and the integrity of the product. Syrah is naturally rich in polyphenols, anthocyanins, and aromatic compounds with recognized antioxidant properties. Semi-carbonic maceration, enhancing freshness and liveliness, yields a wine with a lively body and great drinkability, to be enjoyed in moderation in the convivial Mediterranean tradition. Choosing a biodynamic wine also means supporting sustainable agricultural practices that respect the vitality of the soil.
