Luigi d'Alessandro (Manzano)
Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro winery was born in 1967 when the d'Alessandro family moved from Rome and purchased 100 prime hectares of the Manzano farm. In 1988 Massimo d'Alessandro began experiments on 5 hectares planted by Attilio Scienza to determine the quality of the area. It took four years of micro-vinification and careful study of the soil and climate to develop Syrah into an international variety. The results were excellent and deeply affected by the local characteristics of the land. As a result of the experiments, from 1993 to 2002, Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro gradually planted 40 hectares of Syrah at a high density (8,000 plants per hectare).

Vinous (93)
The 2006 Cortona Syrah Migliara is a selection made from the estate's best finest fruit. It is an especially vibrant, full-bodied wine that bursts onto the palate with an explosion of fruit. This, too, will require patience, but the wine boasts extraordinary purity and a level of textural finesse that insures it will drink beautifully for a number of years. 2006 is the first vintage for the Migliara, an old-vine parcel that had always been vinified and aged separately, but was previously blended into Il Bosco.Inc.
