Fattoria di Sammontana – Stamattane! 2024

This unique Syrah from Tuscany, sourced from an old vineyard, offers a slightly fresher and more vibrant expression in 2024. Partial fermentation with whole bunches in stainless steel enhances the lively fruit profile, bringing out bright notes of red and black berries alongside delicate herbal nuances. The combination of semi-carbonic maceration and partial fermentation adds lifted spicy tones, while the 8-month ageing in cement and damigianas (the Italian dame jeanne) gives the wine a smooth yet energetic texture with subtle earthy hints. The 50-year-old vines keep this wine concentrated and well-structured despite the cooler vintage. Since no sulphur is added, the natural expression of the grape and terroir remains beautifully pure and transparent.

The Stamattane is a special, “wilder” cuvée alongside the more classic wines from this winery.
