    Information
    About the producer

    Perched 100m high in the Taravo Valley in southern Corsica lies Jean-Charles Abbatucci's 20 hectares of vines. Founded in the 1920s by Jacques Abbatucci, this is one of the oldest domains on the island. An incredible 18 different native grape varieties are cultivated: besides the famous Vermentino, Sciacarello and Nielluccio, Jean-Charles has a mosaic of endemic varieties planted in his vineyards that few others can lay claim to (Aleatico, Carcajolo Nera, Minustello, Morescola, Morescono, Montanaccia…). The domain has a biodynamic approach and the vineyards are laid to grass. A flock of sheep graze amongst the vines during winter and harvests are always carried out by hand. In the chai, vinification is a “hands off' affair and the resulting wines are prized for their finesse, elegance and freshness. A true touchstone of wines from this fascinating region.

    About the wine

    This Sciaccarello is vinified in tronconic wooden vats and matured firstly in foudres and demi-muids (one year) and then in stainless steel tanks (several months). Its intense colour hints at an equally powerful aromatic bouquet, with touches of red fruits and delicate wood. The same flavours are magnified on the palate which is supported by an elegant mineral backbone that also adds persistence and complexity.
