Nielluccio
In the eighteenth century, Corsica was not yet French, but Italian. At that time the Nielluccio grape was brought to the island. Most Corsicans think it is a grape native to the island. But actually it is the Sangiovese. Genetically identical. Yet it tastes slightly different in Corsica than in Tuscany.
Just a little tighter. With young red fruit of cherries, tomatoes and especially blueberries. Freshly dry, with some tannin in the aftertaste. Could be due to the Corsican slate soil. Or by the sea. Because it is a lot further away in Tuscany.

Corsica

Corsica is a true wine island. More than half of its surface consists of vineyards. They are in the bright sun, but receive welcome cooling from the Mediterranean Sea. As a result, the wines of Corsica have a leaner, fresher character than you might expect from such a southern region. They are exported on a very modest scale.
