About the wine

A Tuscan Syrah fermented spontaneously in concrete with indigenous yeasts. Ageing in large oak barrels and time in bottle give the wine room to develop, with minimal sulphur used before bottling without filtration.

About Buccia Nera

Buccia Nera is a family estate at Campriano, near Arezzo in Tuscany, with roots stretching back to the late nineteenth century. Vineyards sit within a landscape of woodland, olive groves and orchards, and organic farming is central to the family’s work. In the cellar, spontaneous fermentation and natural settling guide the wines. Steel, concrete and wood are used according to the style, from youthful bottles to longer-aged reds and traditional Vin Santo.
