Clos-Fornelli-Robe-D'ange.jpg

Sciaccarellu grapes from 2 parcels on the eastern coast of Corsica. Vines average 35 years and grow on soils of clay & alluvium deposits from natural erosion. Natural fermentation and aged in concrete vats for 7-10 months before bottling.

Tasting Note: 2021 - Aromas of bright red fruit – cranberry, strawberry with hints of pepper, and spice on the nose. Juicy and supple on the palate with a fresh red fruit core, good acidity, pure and refreshing, and slight floral notes on the finish.

2022 - Aromas of cherry, wild strawberry, and plum with hints of thyme, crushed violet, and earth on the nose. Supple and juicy on the palate with a red-berried fruit core, bright acidity, plush tannin, and a little earthy on the finish.
