The 2023 Domaine de l'Agramante Cuvée M'arricriu Rouge is a beautifully wild and expressive Mediterranean red from Corsica, crafted with a low-intervention philosophy that highlights the island’s rugged terroir and native grape character. Produced from organically farmed vineyards influenced by both mountain freshness and maritime conditions, the wine combines vibrant fruit, savoury herbs and mineral tension with remarkable energy and drinkability. The nose reveals wild blackberry, red plum and black cherry layered alongside maquis herbs, cracked pepper and subtle earthy spice, giving the wine impressive aromatic complexity and unmistakable Corsican character.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a finely detailed mineral core. Layers of dark berry fruit, savoury herbal notes and gentle smoky spice are balanced by freshness and supple texture, finishing long, energetic and beautifully persistent with excellent balance and regional authenticity. Minimal intervention in the cellar preserves the purity and transparency of the fruit while allowing the island’s stony soils and Mediterranean climate to shine through clearly.
