The aromas of dark fruit, dried meat, bacon and orange peel are impressive. It’s medium-bodied with juicy fruit, round tannins and notes of dried meat and cedar. Lightly bitter at the end in a good way. An attractive blend of syrah and nero d’avola that gives an international take on the Sicilian area of Noto. From organically grown grapes. Enjoy now.

An elegant, medium-bodied red, with a ripe, rich core of black plum reduction, mulled cherry and black licorice flavors underscored by toasty accents of apple wood smoke and grilled herbs. Fresh and fluid on the well-spiced finish.

A well-meshed red, framing flavors of baked blackberry and steeped black cherry with supple tannins and light citrus peel acidity. Medium- to full-bodied, with hints of dusty sage, spice box and loamy earth lingering on the finish.

Packaged in a heavy glass bottle with fun exotic-looking stenciling on the front, the Feudo Maccari 2019 Sicilia Syrah Mahâris is a full-bodied red that marries this robust grape with the sun-drenched territory of Sicily. The wine is soft and richly layered with lots of dark fruit, spice, baking chocolate and sweet tobacco. You get loads of intensity here on all the senses. Fruit comes from limestone soils and 30-year-old vines with south and southeast exposures.

The 2022 Maharis, 100% Syrah, wafts up with a smoky bouquet of plum sauce, grilled sage and camphor. This is pure elegance on the palate, with creamy textures offset by tart red and black fruits and a guiding core of zesty acidity. Violet and lavender florals resonate as the 2022 finishes with a bitter blackberry concentration, casting hints of dark chocolate over a bed of fine tannins. While already pleasing to the senses, the 2022 is balanced for medium-term cellaring.
