Scrio

Le Macchiole is a winery located in the Bolgheri area in the heart of the Livorno Maremma, which has become one of the historic reference points for quality Tuscan wine. The founders Eugenio Campolmi and Cinzia Merli, with their audacity and resourcefulness, were pioneers of a certain type of viticulture that over the years has contributed decisively to the fame of Bolgheri, with wines with great personality. The dynamism of the Le Macchiole winery has been a winning choice, which has been able to maintain ancient traditions by continuously changing and innovating, choosing organic farming and sustainability. These are the principles of a success that can be found in the absolute authenticity and refinement of its wines.

Scrio, produced by the Le Macchiole winery, represents an icon in the Tuscan wine scene and an undisputed point of reference for the interpretation of the Syrah grape variety in Italy. This wine, born in 1994 from Eugenio Campolmi's desire to create a pure and powerful expression of this variety, has become a cult label over the years, appreciated internationally for its complexity and its ability to age. Scrio is produced exclusively with Syrah grapes, grown in vineyards located in the Bolgheri area of ​​Tuscany. The terroir of this region, characterized by sandy and gravelly soils, and a Mediterranean climate with significant temperature variations, gives the wine a unique elegance and minerality. The vines, trained on espalier, benefit from optimal exposure to the sun, ensuring perfect ripening of the grapes. The vinification of Scrio takes place in the traditional way, with alcoholic fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature, followed by maceration on the skins for approximately 15-20 days. Subsequently, the wine is transferred to French oak barriques, where it ages for a period that varies depending on the vintage. The aging in wood, in addition to giving the wine spicy and toasted notes, favors its aromatic complexity and structure.

Scrio presents itself to the eye with an intense ruby ​​red color, with garnet reflections. On the nose, the bouquet is broad and complex, with notes of ripe red fruit (blackberry, currant), spices (black pepper, cloves), tobacco, licorice and hints of undergrowth. In the mouth, the wine is enveloping and structured, with powerful but well-integrated tannins, a lively acidity and a long persistent finish, characterized by mineral and spicy notes. Scrio is a wine with great personality, perfect to accompany important and structured dishes. It pairs excellently with grilled or braised red meats, game, mature cheeses and tasty first courses.
