F*** Pony featuring Chela Simone « I know it happened » 2010 ( single )

A great red wine from the center of Corsica.

Clocked in a deep garnet robe with purple hues, served in a glass sketched with a black wolf-head logo, the nectar make echo with the powerful electro bass of sonic song between clap and keyboard.

The aromatic palette redoubles ardently by firing like a dragster car along the chalice, revealing notes of black fruit (cherry, blackcurrant, blueberry), prune of d’Antan, mocha coffee, violet ricocheting progressively on the bass piano chords where the voice sensual exults the distorted sax that underlines the spicy finale of the wine.

The ample mouth explodes with flavors identical to the aromas expressing the taste harmony of this wine, where the silky tannins glide in our palate like the melody of the vocal message to our music-lovers ears.

Subtle mineral finesse manifests itself at the end of the mouth to complement the modern beauty of this elixir dressed in its contemporary composition of the same « vintage ».
