Region: Corsica

Variety: 42% Nielluccio, 33% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 5% Sciaccarellu.

What's in the glass: A sound introduction to Corsican rosé, this showcases the island’s more rocky and chiselled take on the style (relative to Provence).  Tight, tense, saline, with pink grapefruit and watermelon and citrus rind, it’s underpinned with granitic minerals and bone dry.  The international varieties in the blend give a little more generosity around its fine, lean feel – only 12% alcohol.  Sophisticated IGP wine.
