Clos Signadore - Patrimonio A Mandria blanc 2022
91/100
RVF
"A real treat that calls for spicy cuisine."
Mandria white wine releases fresh and subtle aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and hints of pear. The palate is mineral, almost salty, with a lovely aromatic persistence. Its Mediterranean character pairs very well with seafood.

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.

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.
