2021 Stefano Amerighi Syrah Cortona Tuscany, Italy Il Paradiso di Manfredi Whole-cluster pressed100% Syrah, a portion of which are partially de stemmed, while some are left whole and still others are lightly foot pressed. Fermentation occurs spontaneously in small concrete vats and without the use of pumps, sulfur or temperature control. The wine is then allowed to clarify naturally and is moved to various vessels for aging (mostly concrete and Clayver ceramic orbs, but a small portion does go into large oak casks).
