The wine region of Vin de Corse
Vin de Corse (or simply "Corsica") is the Generic name for Corsica, an island located in the Mediterranean between France and Italy. Although much closer to the Italian coast - and separated from Sardinia only by the narrow Strait of Bonifacio - the island has been under French rule since 1769. The Vin de Corse appellation includes several sub-regions, corresponding to five major wine-producing areas of Corsica: Porto-Vecchio, Figari, Sartene, Calvi and Cap Corse. The other places, Patrimonio and Ajaccio, are also Part of the general catchment area of Vin de Corse, but have their own appellations since 1968 and 1984 respectively.
The wine region of Corsica
Corsica is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, located between the southeast coast of Provence and the west coast of Tuscany. Although it is closer to Italy, Corsica has been under French rule since 1769 and is one of the 26 regions of France. The island's Italian origins are evident in its wines, which are mainly made from the classic Italian Grapes Vermentino and Sangiovese (known here as Rolle and Nielluccio respectively). Despite its remoteness, Corsican winemakers have amassed an impressive and diverse portfolio of grape varieties - there are very few places on earth where Pinot Noir, Tempranillo and Barbarossa grow side by side.
The word of the wine: Rosé de saignée
