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).
The word of the wine: Ugni blanc
White grape variety of Italian origin, and the main white variety grown in France. Its large bunches give fine, light and lively wines, suitable for distillation: today it is the main variety for making cognac and armagnac. Ugni blanc, which is a little richer in alcohol when grown in Mediterranean regions, is used in the blending of the Provence and Corsica appellations, often in association with other grape varieties that bring aromas and structure, such as clairette, grenache blanc or sauvignon. Ugni blanc is also used, on a secondary basis, in the production of certain white wines in Gironde (AOC Bordeaux, Entre-deux-Mers, etc.).
