AOC Vin de Corse wines awarded at the Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge

A.O.C./A.O.P.

these wines can be grown throughout the AC Corse production area (except for the Patrimonio region). Most Corsican wines (Vin de Corse) come from the hills overlooking the eastern plains and the middle Golo valley in the Corte area. A local appellation name (Sartène, Calvi, Cap-Corse, Figari, Porto-Vecchio) can be appended to AC Vin de Corse. Native grapes are the most prevalent though Mediterranean varietals from the mainland are also grown. For red and rosé wines, the range comprises Nieluccio, Sciacarello and Grenache noir augmented with a maximum 50% of Cinsault, Mourvedre, Barbarossa, Syrah, Carignan and Vermentino (20% maximum for the latter two). For the whites, the range is simpler: Vermentino (75% minimum) and Ugni blanc (25% maximum).

Grape varieties: Vins rouges, rosés : Nielluccio, sciacarello, grenache noir, cinsault, mourvèdre, barbarossa, syrah, carignan, vermentino. Vins blancs secs : vermentino, ugni blanc

The wines of this appellation

the reds have a pleasant bouquet, are well-constituted, warm and supple. Aromas of fresh fruit and undergrowth are present, with gamey, spicy notes. Try with barbecues, roast meats (beef, goat), patés. The rosés have a deep colour, good vinosity and are clean. The whites are fat and supple with a slight bitterness. They pair with fish, sea urchins, goats or ewe milk cheese, and cooked cold pork meats.
