Directly from the wine estate
93/100 Parker
When to drink this wine : 2023 - 2029
Tasting by Yohan Castaing in 2023 : ‘Direct-pressed, the Corse Figari Rose 2022, a blend of Grenache, Sciaccarellu and Niellucci, has a vibrant, iodised bouquet with aromas of peach, red berries, gooseberry, spice, garrigue and an attractive menthol top note. Quite full-bodied, salty and taut, it is delicately fresh and perfectly balanced with a delicate, elegant finish. More incisive than the 2021, it will offer a wide drinking window (1-5 years).’
