Le Petit is Cantina Canaio's rosato, a 100% Syrah classified Toscana IGT. Pale to bright pink in colour, it shows aromas of white-pulp stone fruit, meadow flowers, citrus and wet stone, with a fresh, juicy palate, a touch of fruit sweetness and a long finish. It is a young, immediate style meant to be enjoyed within a year or two of the vintage.
Syrah rarely makes a rosé this bright — Le Petit shows there's more than one way to read this grape in Cortona.
