Certainly peculiar... it's 50% Nielluccio (the rest Syrah and Grenache) which is apparently indigenous to Corsica and closely related to Sangiovese. Tannic, with a tart and herbaceous wild edge. There's some big fruit there, but it sometimes gets lost in mix. Needs food. For the curious. #delectabingo
