Discovering the wine region of Corsica

Mediterranean island wine region with a triple native face, ~8,000 ha. Niellucciu signature (cousin of Sangiovese) dominates Patrimonio: structured reds with signature notes of black cherry, garrigue, maquis, spices and leather, firm tannins and sun-drenched mouth. Sciaccarellu (min. 60% in Ajaccio) lighter and peppery (strawberry, wild herbs).

Star Vermentinu white, aromatic and saline (citrus, flowers, almond, iodine). Sweet Muscat du Cap Corse VDN. Maritime climate, unique identity.

Discover the grape variety: Mammolo

Supple, fragrant reds with a clear ruby colour, smooth tannins and an airy palate; intense signature aromas of violet (the grape's Italian name means "violet"), red fruits (cherry, raspberry), gentle spices and delicate floral notes. Elegant, fine aromatic profile. A traditional component of Chianti, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG and Brunello di Montalcino, adding perfume and finesse. Indigenous Italian black grape from Tuscany.
