Medium-dark ruby red with black reflections - a wine that reveals its Mediterranean origin and concentration in the glass.<\/p>\n
The bouquet unfolds with impressive intensity: wild cherries, redcurrants and wild strawberries dominate the first impression, accompanied by red plums and a hint of cassis. With increasing aeration, the typical Corsican soul reveals itself - the wild herbs of the Macchia<\/strong> The flavours of the grapes mingle with black pepper, fine spicy notes and a fascinating blend of graphite, smoke and fresh leather. This complexity is characteristic of Abbatucci's uncompromising biodynamic work.<\/p>\n On the palate, the Ministre Imp\u00e9rial 2019 has a voluminous presence and considerable roundness. The red fruit is fresh and lively, supported by a racy acidity structure that gives the wine remarkable energy despite its 14.5% alcohol. Elegant spice and subtle bitter tones play with fine-grained, ripe tannins that form a solid structure - a clear sign of ageing potential. The long, mouthwatering finish combines power with finesse, Mediterranean richness with mineral tension. A wine that combines seriousness with elegance.<\/p>\n Jean-Charles Abbatucci is one of the pioneers of biodynamic viticulture in Corsica and cultivates indigenous grape varieties with uncompromising dedication. This cuv\u00e9e of Sciaccarellu, Niellucciu and Al\u00e9aticu represents the essence of Corsican wine culture - wild, authentic and of impressive depth. The absence of added sulphur and minimal intervention in the cellar allow the mineral-rich granite soils and the Mediterranean terroir to come into their own.<\/p>\n This powerful, spicy red wine demands a correspondingly aromatic accompaniment: Wild boar goulash<\/strong>, Braised shoulder of lamb with rosemary<\/strong>, Braised beef<\/strong> or coq au vin<\/strong>. Also to matured pecorino<\/strong> or Corsican sausages<\/strong> an excellent choice.<\/p>\n An authentic representative of Corsican winemaking with considerable ageing potential of at least 8-10 years. Biodynamic cultivation and the use of old, indigenous grape varieties make this wine a unique terroir ambassador.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
