Tasting Note

This intense red wine presents a compelling aromatic profile of dark plum and cherry, garrigue, leather and licorice. Full-bodied and complex on the palate, it delivers dense yet refined tannins with notable texture and complexity. The wine showcases remarkable freshness alongside aromas of wild herbs, blood orange peel, violet, wild berries, and spices, capturing the essence of Corsica's untamed landscape. Long and ambitious, this exceptional Sciaccarellu demonstrates impressive depth and stands distinctively apart from typical expressions of the variety.
