The wine region of Ajaccio

AOC of Southern Corsica around the gulfs of Ajaccio and Sagone (~220 ha), clay and weathered granite, temperate Mediterranean climate. Sciaccarello is the signature red and rosé king (identity native): spiced and airy with red cherry, raspberry, pepper, garrigue (maquis, immortelle) and a toasty touch, fine tannins and saline freshness. Pale fruity rosés in the same register. Vermentino (Malvoisie) ample and saline as white.


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: Stirring

In the traditional method, the operation aims to bring the deposits against the cork by the movement of the bottles placed on desks. The stirring can be manual or mechanical (using gyropalettes).
