• Corsican wines and vineyards

Corsica, a jewellery box of flavours

The island’s vineyards are unlike any other, being the only island vineyards in France and over 2,000 years old. The diversity of soils and sun-drenched hillsides, the maritime influence and the unusual juxtaposition of microclimates draw the silhouette of wines and terroirs on a large part of the island’s territory. Reflect of a strong identity with thousand-year-old roots, grape varieties are  unusual and noble.
