Natalie's Score: 90/100

A full-bodied, juicy and deeply concentrated Italian red wine blend of Sangiovese and Syrah grapes. Aromas of dark plums, smoke and mocha. Supple. Pair with grilled meats and hamburgers.

Sangiovese Syrah food pairings: meaty lasagne, meatlover's pizza, grilled veal chops in red wine sauce.

Reviews and Ratings

Wineboy rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

The internet says this wine is 60% SV, 40% Syrah. Yet, it tastes as if the percentages could be inverted or even more Syrah than 60%. Berries, berries on the nose and palate. Add in a bit of smoke on the palate and you've got a more complex wine than the price would indicate. A touch of acidity from the Sangiovese completes this good buy.
Rocca Delle Macìe Sasyr 2014 is a medium-bodied Sangiovese, Syrah wine blend from the Tuscany wine region. Great value here under $16. This is a clean and crisp red with dark berry, citrus zest and nutty flavours on the palate. Easy to enjoy now. Pair with grilled veal chops. - Community Wine Reviews
