Tasting Note

This intense red wine presents a compelling aromatic profile of dark plum and cherry, garrigue, leather and licorice. Full-bodied and complex on the palate, it delivers dense yet refined tannins with notable texture and complexity. The wine showcases remarkable freshness alongside aromas of wild herbs, blood orange peel, violet, wild berries, and spices, capturing the essence of Corsica's untamed landscape. Long and ambitious, this exceptional Sciaccarellu demonstrates impressive depth and stands distinctively apart from typical expressions of the variety.

Product Notes

This high-altitude red wine enjoys a full-bodied and intense structure, stemming from aged vines grown on the footholds of breathtaking mountains. It features a stunning amalgamation of native Sciaccarellu and Nielluccio grapes, offering a striking, complex bouquet of ripe cherries, dark chocolate, and lustrous spices. Aged meticulously in French oak barrels, every sip of Le Chemin de Croix unveils a rich layer of velvety tannins, smoky undertones and a robust mineral finish. It’s an exceptional choice to complement hearty meals or to savour solo.
