Last suitcase wine from brought home from Corsica. On the nose, ruby grapefruit, ocean spray (real ocean, not the juice), minerals. In the mouth, very saline with citrus, white flowers and excellent minerality. Long finish. Solid wine. — 4 years ago

Vin de Corse Sartene Sciacarello Nielluccio Blend 2016

This wine from Corsica is really interesting. Very light in colour (local grapes) it is very Cotes du Rhône like in style. Lightly chilled it is a nice surprise. — 6 years ago

Juicy and gluggable, there's a very "natural wine" essence to this bottling. Fresh-crushed blackberries, Italian Amaro, fennel. Super refreshing acidity and laid-back tannins. — 8 years ago

Vintage 2015 / No sulphites. No filtering. 3 months on amphora, 4 months on barrique. Mix of authentic grapes #nielluciu #sciaccarello #minustello #carcaghjolu #morescone that makes this #corsicanwine very enjoyable. Rich and refined. Pretty round. Some roses. Frivolous. I like it very much. — 5 years ago

Pumonte Vin de Corse Calvi Vermentino 2012

Vintage 2012 - wine from #corse #corsican local grapes #nielluciu and #sciaccarello The wine has very clear evolution, giving a rooftile brown rim. The smell of a stable, positive stinking! Also raspberries liquor, plums, a bit dusty impression in taste with a nice bitter at the end. The smell of the wine from these curious grapes reminded me a bit of Burgundy. — 6 years ago

I don't know about the "drinking pink clouds" marketing hoo-haa, but it's a damn fine and singular Rosé. Sweet but not cloying, tart but not biting. Just right tonight. — 7 years ago
