Discovering the wine region of Ile de Beaute

Ile de Beauté is the evocative PGI title given to wines that come from Corsica. The island is located in the Mediterranean Sea between the southeast coast of Provence and the west coast of Tuscany. Although the island is closer to Italy, it has been under French rule since 1764 and is one of the 27 regions of France. Corsica's Italian heritage is reflected in the island's wines, which are made primarily from Sangiovese (known here as Nielluccio) and Vermentino.

The IGP Île de Beauté allows for a Long list of grape varieties, including a mix of traditional Corsican, Spanish, French and Italian varieties. There are very few other wine regions in the world where you can find Nielluccio, Pinot Noir, Tempranillo and Barbarossa in the same Vineyard. Chardonnay, brought to Corsica by the French, is often blended with Vermentino in IGP wines. (See the wine lists in our database below for a larger picture).
