Diplomate 2022
Region: Vins de Corse
Producer: Domaine Abbatucci Distribution SARL
To the eye, this wine is limpid and brilliant with pale green and white-gold reflections. On the nose, an intense bouquet of white flowers and yellow blossom quickly reveals itself, followed by aromas of maquis herbs and white-fleshed fruit such as white peaches. Fresh, tangy notes emerge, reminiscent of yellow currants and mirabelle plums, with hints of slightly sweet lemon zest and grapefruit. The palate is lively and intense on the attack, before a silkier, fuller texture in the middle and finish. The balance of structure and volume is revealed as the tasting progresses, with a hint of minerality at the end, iodized and salty, underlined by refined bitter and peppery flavors reminiscent of almond and grapefruit. Fascinating energies and vibrations make this wine a rare experience with its complexity.| Volume | 75.0 cl. |
