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.

The wine region of Ramona Valley
AVA Heart of San Diego Wine Country (~89,000 acres, 168th American AVA 2005, 320 frost-free days): Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah, Tempranillo, Barbera and Zinfandel as red kings — concentrated and full-bodied with ripe fruits, sustained tannic structure, warm expression. Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat Canelli in whites. Warm dry climate influenced by Pacific Ocean (morning mists, breezes) and Colorado desert, intense terroir.
The wine region of California
Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
The word of the wine: Tired
Wine that is too old, faded or has suffered from handling such as racking or bottling. In the first case it is too late, in the second case the wine must be put to rest for a few weeks in the cellar.
