Sira Single Barrel Bratanov Seewines Selection 2020

Art. # 5176

This limited edition of 520 bottles is a true find and we at Siwines are pleased to present to your attention Syrah Single Barrel 2020!

The characteristic of the 2020 vintage is a warmer and drier summer, but the Syrah was harvested at optimal ripeness. The yield is smaller and accordingly the quantities are limited.

A wine that reveals the wonderful characteristics of this variety in pure form. Balanced to perfection with traditional aromas of berries, black pepper, chocolate with chili, and earthy nuances. The fermentation is entirely with “wild yeasts” - the natural microflora from the vineyard. The toasting of the barrel is medium, personally carried out by Maria Stoeva, in order to achieve the desired organoleptic profile of the wine and to attain even greater softness and balance. This terroir approach, combined with prolonged maceration before and after fermentation, contributes to more complexity, pronounced character, and good structure of this wine and gives it excellent aging potential.

More about this product

Bratanov Winery

Bratanov Winery

The Bratanov family cellar is located near the village of Shishmanovo, South Sakar. In the period 2006-2008, they planted 24 hectares of their own vineyards with the classic varieties Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, as well as with the local Rubin and Tamianka, in order to restore the hereditary viticulture tradition after a 50-year break. The terrain is located on sunny hills, and the nearby river Maritsa and the winds penetrating along it from the Aegean Sea form an almost Mediterranean climate. The winery has an experimental spirit, uses different methods of winemaking and is not afraid to use spontaneous, "wild" fermentation. Since 2015, the chief oenologist in the winery is a young oenologist Maria Stoeva, who graduated in Dijon, France, who together with the owners focuses on wines that best reflect the characteristics of the terroir and have a strong personality.

Thracian valley

Thracian valley

In this region, which includes Southern Bulgaria, the climate is moderately continental, protected from the northern winds thanks to the Balkan Mountains, with a good distribution of rainfall. It includes the central parts of the Thracian Plain and parts of Sakar. Most of the red grape varieties are concentrated in this area. The varieties grown include 'Mavrud', 'Merlot', 'Cabernet Sauvignon', 'Red Muscat', 'Pamid', and others. The climatic conditions of the region favor the production of rich, dense, memorable red wines from the varieties 'Cabernet Sauvignon' and 'Mavrud'. Good wines from the local variety 'Mavrud' are particularly valued because they combine the aroma and taste of red berries, spices, and herbs.

Syrah

Syrah

Syrah/Shiraz - Two names of one and the same grape variety - the winemakers from the Old world use Syrah and the ones from the New world - Shiraz. The grape is a deep red, even the pulp, therefore this variety is not suitable for blanc de noir wine style. Syrah wine has specific floral aromas in its youth and develops notes of herbs and spices such as white and black pepper as it ages. These varietal specifics come out better when blended with a small amount of Viognier - a method gaining popularity more and more around the world. Syrah produces wines capable of ageing and improving over decades, which enhances its plummy and almost oriental spicy flavours.
