Award: Silver Medal Concours Général Agricole 2009
The influence of the sea and the mountains creates a unique micro-climate on the estate. The sun's generous rays are tempered by the wind. Made from Syrah and Nielluccio grapes, this luscious rosé presents complex, delicate floral (rose) and fruity (raspberry, citron, citrus) notes. Balanced and refreshing, it 's an ideal companion for summer tables!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Jean-François Renucci took over Clos Poggiale alongside Terra Vecchia, and immediately the wines rediscovered the charm and finesse of the fine vintages of the Skalli era. The terroir suits all three colors, and the desire to showcase the wines on the continent and as far afield as Asia will do Corsican viticulture a world of good.
