"The estate's finest vintage"

On the estate's finest terroirs, this cuvée is made from the local Nielluciu grape variety. The nose offers beautiful, elegant and complex aromas of black and red fruits, white pepper, leather, cedar and undergrowth. The palate is full-bodied and straightforward, structured by extremely elegant tannins and infinite length...

Bettane & Desseauve

Winery rated 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

A courageous and determined artisan winemaker, Christophe Ferrandis produces wines of character in his very uncomfortable little cellar. These wines are typical of their region and vinified in a well-understood organic spirit. They need to be aged for two to three years in the bottle. Let's hope that he will soon have the tools he needs to match his efforts.

Wine rating (2023 guide) 94/100 (2017 vintage)

Rated estate (2021 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Originally from Marseille and trained at Château de Pibarnon (Bandol), Christophe Ferrandis settled near Saint-Florent in the village of Poggio d'Oletta in 2002. He makes wine in cramped conditions in an old sheepfold but plans to build a new winery. His vineyard faces the Leccia estate in Morta Piana. Yields are low, cultivation is organic, and the grapes are harvested in small crates. The concentrated, extracted style of his early wines has evolved towards greater finesse. Suitable for excellent aging, the reds are more harmonious, particularly the Clos Signadore and A Mandria cuvées, produced in three colors. Inizia is a new négociant cuvée.
