Colour: Very bright ruby red

Nose: Full, intense and complex. The Syrah brings violet and blackberry aromas to the bouquet while the Niellucciu adds notes of plums, kirsch and maquis scrubland.

Palate: A distinguished and elegant wine, which expresses the character of its terroir and grape varieties, yet remains soft. The wine is dense on the mid-palate with ripe, velvety tannins. You bite into ripe fruit and sweet spices. This wine shows exceptional complexity: raspberries, blackcurrants, blackberries, plums, black olives, liquorice, grey pepper, etc.

Serving temperature: 15-17°C

This very elegant red wine will be the ideal companion with meat (grilled or in a sauce), Basque-style chicken or some of the famous Corsican specialties such as Stufattu (meat marinated in red wine and herbs), a leg of lamb with maquis herbs or charcuterie.
