This is what good wine from the Sciaccarello grape tastes like

The ancient Sciaccarello grape grows on the French island of Corsica. Sciaccarello produces pleasant red wines with a fine floral aroma. Recent research has shown it to be the same grape as the Italian Mammolo, which must have been brought to the French island from Tuscany long ago.

Sciaccarello is probably more than a thousand years old but is threatened with extinction. Only a few winemakers in Tuscany and on Corsica still have it in their vineyards. The Italians use it to give Chianti or the wines from Montepulciano a bit more aroma.
