Description

The freshness and complexity of a Corsican white wine

The estate

In the heart of the breathtaking Taravo Valley, south of Ajaccio, lies one of the biggest names in Corsican winegrowing: Domaine Comte Abbatucci. For over a century, Domaine Comte Abbatucci has cultivated the art of preserving the island's indigenous grape varieties by applying the principles of biodynamic viticulture. The estate's island environment gives its vintages unrivalled character and strength. In a style dazzling with purity, finesse and freshness, discover the DNA of Corsica through vintages bursting with flavour and colour.

The wine

This cuvée was created to celebrate the birth of Faustine, the daughter of Jean-Charles Abbatucci, currently at the head of the estate.

The vineyard

Winemaking and ageing

Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, and the wine is then aged on its lees for six months. After blending, the wine is racked and filtered.
