Description

A lively and delicate Corsican red wine

The estate

Resting at an altitude of over 100 metres, the Domaine Comte Abbatucci is one of the oldest vineyards in Corsica. With its origins dating back more than a century, the estate pays tribute, through its wines, to its celebrated ancestors (General of the French Revolution, diplomat, minister under the reign of Napoleon III) whose destiny has shaped the family history. Taking care to preserve this exceptional island terroir, the estate cultivates indigenous grape varieties which give its wines a unique character. Since 2000, the whole of this Corsican vineyard has been cultivated biodynamically, in order to bring out all the characteristics of a unique Corsican terroir and the preservation of an exceptional nature.

The vineyard

Produced as a Vin de France, the Faustine Vieilles Vignes rosé 2022 of the Abbatucci Estate comes from a north to north-west facing vineyard on granitic soil.

Winemaking and ageing

Harvested by hand in small capacity trailers to preserve the integrity of the fruit, the grapes were meticulously sorted in the vineyard and then in the cellar before direct pressing of the de-stemmed grapes. Following a static settling of 24 to 48 hours, the alcoholic fermentation was carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, as was the ageing on fine lees for 6 months.

Blend

Sciaccarello (100%)
