Syrah Cortona DOC Linfa was born from the desire to explore a different dimension of Syrah, yet another version in which this grape variety can be interpreted and declined, in red winemaking (yes, because we also vinify it in white… and that is how our beloved Rosa del Castagno and Bolla Galeotta are born). English: After Il Castagno (our company's iconic wine) and Cuculaia (our cru) which age for a long time in our barrel cellar, partly in wooden barrels of various sizes made for us by master cooper friends, and partly in old concrete barrels that have always belonged to our cellar and have been perfectly refurbished through the patient work of invaluable craftsmen, acquiring extraordinary elegance, depth and complexity, and the “Castagnino”, aged entirely (for a shorter period) exclusively in concrete barrels, to safeguard its naked, wild and fragrant profile, privileging varietal identity, immediacy and ease of drinking over complexity, I felt the need to discover how my Syrah could express itself by being born and growing in symbiosis with another material that fascinates me, like wood and concrete, and which rightfully belongs to the most ancient, and natural, history of wine... and of man.
