Domaine Comte Abbatucci
'CN' Corsica Carcaghjolu Neru
Corsica, France
We visited Corsica and tastes this out of barrel. It smells insanely like the herbs surrounding the vineyard. Delicious. Grab a bottle if you can find it.

If you haven't gotten on the Abbatucci train, do it now! This Carcaghjolu Nero is pure magic, deep and concentrated yet vivid, exotic and oh so drinkable.

@Todd Abrams this is awesome. Fresh raisins followed by a touch of cedar. Ripe cherries.

Most predominant note was potpourri, smelled like Christmas Eve, cinnamon, nutmeg. Was beautifully balanced with round tannins marked by nice acidity, good structure. Noted evolved and changed every few minutes I went back to it. LOVE. Paired great with spicy charcuterie... Should be versatile in pairings with food, something substantial could handle bold flavors.
