Among the international grape varieties that best adapt to the hot Sicilian climate there is undoubtedly Syrah. Native to the Rhone Valley in France, it gives wines full loads of colour and fragrance. Wines that usually also have a typical spicy note that can remind one of black pepper or dark chocolate, depending on the climate. Feudo Principi di Butera offers a particularly interesting version of Syrah. Grapes that come from vineyards slightly on slopes and properly exposed to the sea to benefit from the influence of sea breezes. In the glass it is a beautiful deep ruby red colour with great intensity. The nose expresses intense and rich scents. Notes of well-ripened red fruit and sweet spices. In the mouth it is rich, enveloping and well structured. A wine that could be described as juicy and pleasantly fruity.
Sicilian, or rather very Sicilian, the Feudo Principi di Butera winery actually belongs to the large Venetian group Zonin1821. It is located in the province of Caltanisetta, one of the most suitable territories for the production of Nero d'Avola. Here, in fact, the island's hot climate is mitigated by frequent sea breezes that help lower the daytime temperatures, giving respite to the grapes that reach perfect ripeness without losing their natural acidity. The Zonin family has established its Sicilian headquarters in a perfectly restored ancient feud. The vineyards extend over about 180 hectares of property, between 250 and 350 metres above sea level. Low yields and extensive use of indigenous grapes, including Nero d'Avola, Grillo and Inzolia. Obviously, there is also no lack of international vines that are better suited to living in such a hot environment. The production of still wines is superb, but also that of unusual bubbles.
