Reviewed May 2024Juicy red fruits (strawberries, cherries), leather, spring flowers, and peppery, spicy notes all emerge from the 2022 Corse, a medium-bodied, nicely balanced, elegant red offering fine tannins, integrated acidity, and an undeniable sense of minerality on the finish. It's another beautiful wine from this estate with tons to love. Drink bottles over the coming 7-8 years.
Notes
Domaine Petroni is an estate on the eastern side of Corsica near Lake Diane. Lake Diane is a famous lagoon, where the local aquaculture produces gorgeous oysters and mussels. Now run by the Ramazotti brothers, this idyllic location overlooks the Mediterranean with its vineyards composed of sandy and clay soils. The rouge is a blend of roughly 50% Niellucciu, 35% Syrah, and 15% Grenache. Grapes are fermented in concrete tanks and aged 12 months in stainless steel to preserve the fresh fruit-driven aspects of the wine.
