La Malena Rosso Toscana

“La Malena” comprises 80% Ciliegiolo and 20% Syrah from a small parcel planted in 1993. After a spontaneous fermentation in concrete tank, it ages 18 months in used 225-liter Allier oak barrels, and is bottled without fining or filtering, and with just a trace of sulfur. The Syrah’s robust spice blends beautifully with the Ciliegiolo’s ripe, mineral-inflected character, offering an alternative yet equally compelling voicing of Pācina’s distinctive terroir.
