Domaine de Terra Vecchia
Terra di Diana Ile de Beauté White Blend
Corsica, France
Deep yellow color with strong legs. Smells mostly oaky, but you definitely get citrus and maybe a little almond. Medium bodied, smooth and well balanced. Nutty taste and mildly citrusy. The colder you can get this one, the better. This wine is begging to be paired with a shrimp pasta or some fried fish.

Really good! Well-balanced oak with bright lemon-lime notes

I’m not as enthusiastic about this one as Suckling’s 90 score. It’s a #chardonnay and #vermentino blend from #corsica - Richer lemony body plus faint tropical notes. It held up well over a week in the wine fridge so for the modest price it’s not bad.

Smell is not particularly strong, but upon tasting it, I found it Very fruity and refreshing. Better to drink it cold. Has a very smooth and lasting finish. Got it at Wegmans.

A white dominated mostly by Sauvignon Blanc, has a great floral and lemon peel notes. A touch of mineral and salinity makes it perfect pairing to oyster and shrimp cocktail. Very casual and low in ABV @ 12% make it quite drinkable any time and day of the week. Simply delicious!

On the nose, nutty, mushrooms, earthy like smell. High minerality, more floral than citrus, flowery, and slight lemony flavor. Very complex wine and one that I would most definitely pick up again. Reigning from the birth place of, Napoleon Bonaparte this wine caught my eye from the start and I’m glad this did not disappoint.

Slowly grew on us but not in a rush to get it again.

Balanced and dry. Paired well with trout en papillote. Great value.
