Discover the grape variety: Carcajolo Bianco
Fresh, simple dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and preserved acidity. Understated aromas of citrus, white flowers and Mediterranean iodine notes. Rustic, airy profile, best drunk young. A precious witness of Corsica's insular ampelographic heritage, often blended in local whites and subject to conservation plantings under the CRVI. White mutation of Carcajolo Noir, a rare Corsican grape grown in Corse-du-Sud.
