“Still lightly extracted, with a fine, brilliant carmine-red hue. The texture on the palate is delightful; the Sciaccarellu fruit captivates us immediately, while the touch of Cinsault adds a burst of freshness. It’s beautifully balanced in the glass—savory, refined, and easy to drink. A wine that will never tire the palate, free of any artificial oak notes. ” (Le Guide RVF 2025)

The texture on the palate is delightful; the Sciaccarellu fruit captivates us right away, while the touch of Cinsault adds a burst of freshness.

About the estate:
Jean-Raphaël Racine-Grisoli and his brother Jean-Vincent have revived the vineyards of Corsica’s only château—and the southernmost in the Calvi appellation—since purchasing it in 2017. Planting began in 2018 and has since expanded to cover 34 hectares of vineyards. They started from scratch, with virgin soil that they had to “rejuvenate.” Thanks in particular to their agronomist, as well as to Emmanuel Gagnepain, the oenologist for several leading estates in the Corsican wine region, they thoroughly studied the soils and ensured that each grape variety is planted in its ideal location. Demeter certification has been in effect since 2023.
