Domaine Sant Armettu Myrtus red 2022

Guide RVF des Meilleurs Vins de France 2025, 92-93/100. Trio of sciaccarellu, elegante (grenache) and minustrellu, colorful, carmine red of beautiful intensity. Smoky nose, musk, noble wood well integrated. Dense and ripe juice, with fleshy fruit, delicate tannins, the aging blends into this ensemble between silk and velvet already very pleasant to savor today.

Le Figaro.fr (The five cuvées favorites of Florent Martin, Best Sommelier of France 2021 - A. Dorey - June 2021) : Among the jewels of the Corsican vineyard. In the wines of this domaine, there is the faithful feeling of a passionate person for their terroir, brought to be revealed as if you were savoring the grapes of a delicate morning dew. It is in the heart of this sun-exposed mountain vineyard that Myrtus is produced, one of those magical cuvées from Corsica where the grape varieties sciaccarellu, minustellu and elegante intertwine. Crushed strawberry, this floral distinction close to that of a rose, evoking the fresh maquis, plum, and this sensation of juicy and peppery berries in a caressing mouth of gripping tannins, both deep and delicate, which will pair wonderfully with subtle and flavorful meats such as pigeon or veal with myrtle.
