Variety: 100% Vermentino
Location: Corsica, FR
Alcohol: 11-14%

This Vermentino is an excellent introduction to the richness, the minerality, and the poise of Corsican white wines. There’s a floral nuance that Vermentino is famous for, and an unmistakeable gentle saltiness to the finish of this wine that makes it such an excellent, refreshing partner to food.

Native yeast fermentations and minimal sulfuring. Aged in stainless steel.

The Patrimonio vineyard site that this wine hails from might easily be mistaken for a lunar landscape given the broken limestone chunks strewn about, were it not for the fact that the vines are planted on such steep slopes. That, and the teeming Mediterranean shores not far away. The vineyard sites have never seen a single chemical input, and are now certified organic since the 2018 vintage. Winemaker Mathiew Marfisi is also the President of the Patrimonio AOC, and is determined to lead Corsican wine in a new direction while diligently observing tradition.
