TANK No 11 Syrah Appassimento - Cantine Minini

The TANK No 11 Syrah Appassimento from Cantine Minini presents itself in the glass in a wonderfully dense ruby red with brick-red reflections. This Italian red wine seduces with inviting aromas of ripe berries, but also plums and juicy cherries, complemented by spicy nuances of black pepper, chocolate and pickled red fruits.

The Syrah from the TANK range delights the palate with its firm and powerful structure, which is accompanied by silky and soft tannins. Clear and precise, this appassimento leads into a wonderfully long finish.

Vinification of the TANK No 11 Syrah from Minini

This Syrah is made using the appassimento method, which is familiar to most people from the great Amarone wines of Veneto, but also from the straw wines of southern Italy. The grapes are dried before fermentation, which leads to an intensification of the aromas. Mario Minini uses the warmth of the Italian south for the TANK wines, as he allows the grapes for the TANK No. 11 to dry on the vine.

Dining recommendations for the Cantine Minini TANK No 11 Syrah

Enjoy this semi-dry red wine with hearty dishes, such as roasts or stews. But this red wine from the south of Italy is also an ideal companion for long conversations on its own.
