About this wine

This rare Corsican white showcases the indigenous Biancu Gentile grape, a hidden gem that's been cultivated on the island for centuries. It's the perfect choice if you're looking for something fresh, distinctive, and wonderfully different from the usual Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.

On the nose, you'll find delicate white flowers and hints of citrus zest, followed by flavors of green apple, pear, and a subtle almond note on the palate. The wine has a lovely mineral backbone with bright acidity that keeps everything lively and refreshing. At 11.5% alcohol, it's light on its feet and incredibly easy to drink.

Serve this beauty slightly chilled around 10-12°C alongside Mediterranean seafood like grilled sea bass, shellfish, or a classic bouillabaisse. It also pairs beautifully with fresh goat cheese or light pasta dishes with herbs and olive oil. This is the kind of wine that transports you straight to a sunny Corsican terrace overlooking the sea.
