About the Wine

The Syrah is the new star of South Sakar and also distinctive wine of Bratanov Winery. This signature wine, produced in limited quantities of just a few hundred cases annually, is a genuine treasure offered to those who appreciate this type of grape.

This Syrah boasts a beautiful opaque ruby color with inky undertones. Its complex nose reveals dark chocolate, ripe berries, mocha, cigar tobacco, and spices. The body is juicy and structured, with balanced acidity and velvety tannins. Flavors of sweet spices, chocolate, blueberries, and walnut leaves intertwine, leaving a lasting impression. The finish lingers with cocoa powder notes. Sira Elitsa 2017 showcases Bratanovi’s elegant style—refined, flavorful, and contemplative.
