"The 2022 Faustine Vieilles Vignes Rosé is labeled as Vin de France because of the use of a single indigenous grape: Sciaccarello. Evoking aromas of rose petals, grapefruit, spring flowers, iodine, red berries, peach, garrigue and lemon, it’s sappy and velvety, built around bright acids with a fleshy core of fruit and a fresh, salty and iodine-laced finish. As usual, this overperforming estate from granite soils has produced a rosé that punches above its weight."

Product Description:

"Abbatucci’s rosé comes from the decomposed granite ridgelines of southwestern Corsica, near the town of Ajaccio. These ribs of granite descend from Corsica’s mountainous interior into the sea, like the exposed skeleton of an ancient reptile. Abbatucci’s pampered biodynamically farmed vines cling to them and drink their nutrients from soil and sea. Pale salmon-hued, juicy, and floral, this rosé presents a perfect marriage of round softness and luminous invigoration. Its ripe, peachy flavors both comfort and refresh." - Importer
