Peter Vinding-Diers of Montecarrubo continues to strive for Syrah purity, a sense of place and low alcohol in the extreme southeast of Sicily, with great success. These new vintages rely on energy and verve more than power, coming across as spicy and zesty in character. Readers shouldn’t expect to find overripe fruit sensations or a shroud of new oak that might hide the faults of lesser fruit here. This lineup is all about transparency. The 2022s are coming along beautifully, displaying lovely complexity and structure to promote further cellaring, while the 2023s (tasted from barrel) are all about elegance.

Peter Vinding-Diers’ 2022s are coming along beautifully. They are still in barrel yet already so expressive and a departure from the typical house style. Vinding-Diers explained, “2022 was a very hot year here, and my son Hans Vinding-Diers, who owns Noemia in Patagonia, suggested that I should try and vinify a little earlier in order to get some fresher wines.” Frankly, the results are compelling, placing these wines somewhere between the Northern Rhône and Burgundy in style, with lower alcohols (around 12%) and lower residual sugars. I, for one, am enjoying both immensely. As for 2021, no wine will be bottled as a fire that burned 500 hectares only three kilometers away badly affected the wines with smoke taint. Ultimately, Vinding Montecarrubo remains one of my top picks for Italian, not just Sicilian, Syrah.
