The estate

The vineyard

This estate in Corse oversees a vineyard of around twenty hectares.

The wine

"Brama" Biancu Gentile is a white vin de France made from vines planted on schist soils, facing south/southeast at the foot of the slope.

Winemaking and aging

Hand-harvested, the grapes are 100% destemmed before an 8-day cold pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats, the same vessels used for 6 to 8 months of aging on fine lees.
