Casale Burgio Appassimento Shiraz - Case of 6
Sorry, this item is no longer available
Product code: 00216074
Smooth and balanced with flavours of sweet plums, black cherries and pepper.
You have to admire the Sicilian approach. This wine completely defies tradition, taking southern France’s Syrah grape and not only transplanting it to the south coast of Sicily, but letting the grapes raisin on the vine before they’re picked, creating a unique red with incredible concentration and smoothness.

Simple hedonistic pleasure
Yes, I recommend this
I believe this is the first time I have been sufficiently motivated to write a review but this wine deserves some recognition. Don't expect the seriousness of syrah wines from the Rhone or even the New World but for sheer ripe voluptuous fruit this would be hard to beat at the price. More reminiscent of negroamaro than syrah or Shiraz, what it lacks in complexity it more than makes up for in the sweetest fruit you could enjoy evermore. There is little doubt that Sicily and southern Italy are areas to watch, possessing the ingenuity and expertise to compete with the best in time.
