It is indeed thought that this grape variety is a hereditary legacy obtained from the French occupation in Tuscany, which lasted for a few decades towards the end of the 18th century, and that over the centuries it has easily adapted and become part of the small idyll that is the Corton terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cuculaia of Fabrizio Dionisio, in particular, is crafted in such a way as to enhance the semi-aromatic and phenolic properties that distinguish Syrah, resulting in a bottled expression that differs for concentration and substance. The grapes are destemmed and undergo an extremely gentle pressing, aimed at \u003cstrong\u003epreserving the integrity of the berries\u003c\/strong\u003e, and an alcoholic fermentation is carried out by indigenous yeasts. The materiality of this label derives from the maceration that the pomace undergoes within the must for as long as 4 weeks, before being transferred to French oak barriques of different productions (Allier, Nevers, Troncais) where it will rest for about 36 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn tasting, the Cuculaia of Fabrizio Dionisio presents itself with a full ruby red color with evident violet nuances. It expresses intense fruity sensations of red currants and raspberries in jam on the nose, framed by elegant notes of roasting, Mediterranean scrub, and a distinct aroma of black peppercorns, typical of Syrah. On the palate, it reveals richness and body, with a \u003cstrong\u003edynamically progressive array of sensory perceptions\u003c\/strong\u003e that divide between intense and comforting softness and smoky sensations, concluding in perfect balance, given by adequate freshness accompanied by well-polished tannins, making this bottle a small masterpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dionisio Fabrizio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60235254497664,"sku":"20V92600","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/1860\/5335\/files\/syrah-cuculaia-fabrizio-dionisio-2020-304027_e48a3e29-80b6-40be-a2fd-43713cdc4981.png?v=1793890073","url":"https:\/\/checkout.callmewine.co.uk\/products\/syrah-cuculaia-fabrizio-dionisio-2020","provider":"Callmewine UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
