Simple, fresh whites with low aromatics, a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and discreet aromas of citrus and Mediterranean white flowers. Often blended in local Corsican whites, a precious witness of the island's ampelographic heritage. White Corsican variety, a mutation of Carcajolo noir, grown on a few hectares in Corse-du-Sud.

The wine region of Auckland
Wine region of northern New Zealand's North Island, warm maritime climate. Waiheke Island is the jewel (18 km by ferry): signature Bordeaux-style blends Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot with dense, ripe reds (blackcurrant, blackberry, herbs, cedar, tobacco, firm tannins) — among New Zealand's finest. Peppery and perfumed Syrah (violet, white pepper, blackberry), precise and structured Chardonnay (peach, citrus, hazelnut butter). Warm, full style, opposite of vibrant Marlborough.
The wine region of North Island
New Zealand's North Island, warmer and more varied than the South Island. Bordeaux varieties and Pinot Noir as signatures. Merlot in Hawke's Bay as a supple red with notes of plum, ripe cherry, fresh herbs and a spicy touch, round tannins — blended with Cabernet and peppery Syrah. Fine Pinot Noir in Wairarapa/Martinborough (cherry, undergrowth).
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
