Blend of local Corsican grapes, which Vermentino was the only one I was familiar with. Tawny gold, ripe yellow fruits, saline freshness, intense concentration and a bit of roundness from lees aging, evocative of scrubby coastal landscapes. Like a good diplomat, an endearing, versatile and fascinating companion to any Mediterranean cuisine

What a lovely surprise. Clean, pure nose of white flowers and stony pear, this reminded me of an Albariño but with vermentino on the palate. Refreshing, well balanced and unique.
