"You can almost hear the cicadas singing when you open this floral and fruity rosé!"

Yves Leccia’s E Croce rosé is the perfect companion for lively gatherings. This blend of saignée and press wine is vinous, full-bodied, and rich, with a lovely fresh backbone. It reveals a very precise floral and fruity profile and features a slightly spicy and mineral finish with a long, lingering aftertaste. Enjoy it as an aperitif or with spicy Mediterranean dishes. Simply delicious!

About the estate:

An oenologist dedicated to the revival and promotion of island wines, Yves Leccia established his own winery in 2005, after managing the family estate alongside his sister for some fifteen years. Today, he and his wife Sandrine run a 16-hectare vineyard on clay-limestone and schist soils in Poggio-d'Oletta. Certified organic since 2017, it is one of the pillars of the Patrimonio appellation, often noted as well for its Muscat wines.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 92/100 (2022 vintage)

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Yves Leccia and his partner, Sandrine, run a vineyard located primarily on the E Croce and Partinelone plots. The entire vineyard is plowed and cultivated, and only organic fertilizers are used. The estate has been highly innovative in recent years with new wines such as O Bà, Biancu Marinu, and L'Altru Biancu. Meticulously crafted, these wines remain fine ambassadors for Corsican viticulture, but care must be taken not to overshadow their individuality: some wines, more standardized than in the past, place too much emphasis on technical precision.
