2005 Clos Poggiale Vin De Corse, France $20

This is an interesting blend of San Giovese or also known as Nielluccio in Corisca and Syrah, sourced from the mountains regions in the Mediterranean. Starting with a fresh aromas of red raspberries and cherries that flow into flavors of creamy vanilla bean and dark spice. These flavors marry perfectly with dried black plum notes, earthy leather, and a rustic feel in the mouth. The finish delivers notes of cocoa powder and velvety bright red fruit notes with a very subtle hint of oak, balancing out the acidity in each sip making this an extremely food friendly wine in each sip. A perfect accompaniment with lamb, beef tenderloin grilled with rosemary or roasted vegetables with balsamic. A refreshing and vibrant wine that is well worth searching out and every cent.
