Clos Canereccia
Corse Red Blend Paysan Vigneron
Corsica, France
This is a blend of Niellucciu 80% – Grenache 15% – Syrah 5%. Nose has a lot going on. Licorice, dark berries, tree bark, cracked rocks. Almost Bandol-like. Rustic, tannic feel in the mouth, but not so much as to detract. Dark fruit and dark stoney flavors. Very clingy. Very good.
UPDATE: As this gains air, the tannins are receding and richer fruit is showing through.

New vintage for me. Nice fruits, drinkable, but too tannic and pruney.
