About the estate:
In 1991, Bernard Renucci took over the family estate of Féliceto, located in Balagne, in the Réginu valley. The 17 hectares of vineyards planted on granite sandy soils are planted with the Corsican grape varieties Sciacarellu, Nielluciu, and Vermentinu (white), complemented by Syrah and Grenache. The vines are plowed and cultivated without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The wines, available in three colors, are certified under the Corse Calvi appellation.

About the estate:
This hard-working and passionate winemaker cultivates a 17-hectare estate in the Feliceto Valley (Balagne), plus a small plot on the hillsides. Established in 1992 and planted until 2005, the vineyard is still relatively young on average. But Bernard Renucci perfectly compensates for this minor temporary handicap with good yield control, a focus on ripeness, and careful vinification. Vignola, the estate's only cuvée, perfectly illustrates this balance between these different parameters in generous wines that preserve the finesse of this alluvial terroir."
