The 2019 Monreale Syrah La Monaca offers lots of natural concentration with blackberry preserves, spice and baking chocolate. There is a lot of power here, including a 15% alcohol content, that evokes both Syrah and Sicily. When married, these two become a force to be reckoned with. The wine finishes with soft tannins and full-bodied concentration. Some 17,000 bottles were made.
