Enjoy the distinctive characteristics of Corsican red grape varieties such as Sciacarellu, Niellucciu, and Minsutellu in this high-quality cuvée. A full-bodied red with plenty of substance that sings of sunshine! Red fruit aromas dominate before giving way to a spicy finish with a hint of cocoa. A delight!

Bettane & Desseauve
Winery rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, consistent with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
The vineyard is located in the heart of the magnificent Ortolo Valley and produces wines that are precise and well-made, but lack the individuality of the best. We particularly recommend the rosé, which perfectly meets expectations.

Wine rating (2025 guide) 93/100 (2021 vintage)
Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Created in 2000, this estate located in the enchanting setting of the Ortolo Valley has been entirely planted with 16 hectares of vines surrounded by scrubland, a privileged location where mountains meet hills. The first certified organic vintage here was 2005. Élisabeth Quilichini's work is bearing fruit, producing a rosé, a white and two reds of excellent quality, aged in large oak barrels and capable of aging well. The estate has successfully evolved towards reds with an infused and fragrant character, earning a well-deserved first star last year.
