Tavernello Organico Syrah Terre Siciliane 2022

Tavernello is the flagship wine brand of Caviro, a large Italian wine cooperative bringing together thousands of grape growers across the country. Its Organico range focuses on wines made from organically grown grapes, with farming practices designed to limit the use of synthetic chemical treatments in the vineyards. This Syrah comes from Sicily, where long hours of sunshine and warm Mediterranean conditions encourage full ripeness, giving the wine its generous dark-fruit character. The organic approach provides a more environmentally conscious option while keeping the emphasis on an accessible, everyday style of wine.

Made from Syrah, this Sicilian red is fermented in stainless steel to preserve its straightforward, fruit-led style. Dark cherry and blackberry aromas lead into ripe blackcurrant and plum, with hints of violet, spice and earthy notes. The palate is dry and rounded, with soft tannins and enough freshness to keep the dark fruit in balance. Easy to enjoy alongside lasagne, spaghetti with meatballs, grilled sausages, burgers or roasted vegetables, it is a versatile red for relaxed meals.
