2016 Domaine De Marquiliani Ile De Beaute Rouge
Description: | "Corsica is also capable of producing chillable reds that offer unique flavors—this lively blend of Sciaccarellu, Grenache, and Syrah is a perfect example of such a style from the Île de Beauté. Vigneronne Anne Amalric of Domaine de Marquiliani, an old olive mill on Corsica's east coast, specialized in rosé (and olive oil) until crafting her first red from the 2015 vintage. Her second effort has much in common with her delicate, ethereal rosés: both feature aromas of fresh berries and wild herbs, and both go down oh so smoothly. The secret to her fun, thirst-quenching wines un- doubtedly lies in her great terroir, sandwiched between snowcapped peaks on one side and the inviting Mediterranean on the other. Cool winds are a constant here, and the persistent ventilation facilitates sustainable farming, ensuring top-quality raw materials. Fermentation in tank and an unfiltered bottling are the final steps to creating this red you will have trouble setting down." -Anthony Lynch |
