Personalised Domaine Alzipratu Cuvée Fiumeseccu Rouge 2023 13.5% 750ml

TASTING NOTES

APPEARANCE

The Fiumeseccu Rouge is pale cherry in colour.

AROMA

Very distinctive in style, dominated by fruity (pomegrante) aromas which evolve towards notes of pepper and spice on the finish.

PALATE

It is light yet with some good fruit flesh over racy acidity and fine, delicate tannins.

REGION NOTES

The 40 hectare vineyard is composed of several south-facing parcels and is split into two different parts. The first is located north of the convent, near to Zilia, and the second is situated 10 km west of the village of Calenzana, in the upper Figarella valley. The Alzipratu vineyards are planted primarily to traditional Corsican varieties, and lie at the foothills of Monte Grossu (the peak of which is 1950 m.a.s.l.); and just a few minutes from the coast. As a result, the vines benefit from sharply contrasting climatic influences due to their proximity to both the sea and the mountains.

FOOD MATCHING

A perfect accompaniment to local specialities such as veal and olive stew, mushroom paté or Charcuterie (cured meats, in particular from pork).

GRAPE VARIETY

60% Sciaccarellu, 25% Elegante, 15% Niellucciu
