  I have a fascination and tend to like the wines from Corsica, a lot. It's been a while for this one at 9 years old but it is drinking beautifully now with room to go!
  
  Really nice, like a hypothetical blend of a Chianti Classico and a Bandol Rouge. Darker with no bricking yet so it's holding up very well for 9 years of age. The nose and palate are very expressive with red and blue fruits, spice, and a nice tension from the acidity that keeps things fresh, while the fruit and spice abound. Slightly more than medium in body, tannin and acidity, the alcohol is med+ on the label but tastes integrated. Nose, palate and finish are med+. All in harmony here and has another 5+ easy.

  noted the same burnt tire note that "lelandinmichigan" stated, definitely different on the nose, tar, plastic and sour cherry are not normally triggers for "great taste", but this was the exception, palate is fresh with lively (ok maybe more than lively) acidity and dry tannins. This seems really on the limit of VA - but managed to keep it just on the fresh side. Not sure I would recommend this wine though, it is polarising, and not sure how it will age.
  
  Extra day was not kind - full VA in effect...

  Native yeast, harmoniously wild, savory with mild hints of bitter herbs and some musk aroma, seemingly perfectly ripe finishing fermentation at 13.5% ABV.

  Aromas of burnt tire. Dark color. Funky with some spice. Nice wine.
