What are the best red wine appellations in Corsica?
The island of Beauty has nine controlled designations of origin. For red wine lovers, Patrimonio stands as an absolute reference: its reds based on Nielluccio develop a beautiful aromatic complexity and a remarkable ageing potential. The Ajaccio appellation offers elegant and refined reds dominated by Sciaccarello. More confidential, the Figari appellation, in the south of the island, produces powerful and generous reds, marked by the granitic terroir. The regional appellation Vin de Corse covers the entire island and offers a wide diversity of styles.
