"Rosé of choice for summer!"

Domain rated (guide 2022) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)

About the domain :

Yves Leccia, an oenologist involved in the revival and promotion of island wines, set up his own estate in 2005, after running the family business with his sister for some fifteen years. Today, with his wife Sandrine, he manages a 16-hectare vineyard on clay-limestone and schist soils in Poggio-d'Oletta. Certified organic since 2017, it is one of the pillars of the Patrimonio appellation, which is also often recognized for its Muscats.

Domaine rated (2022 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Yves Leccia and his partner Sandrine run a vineyard located mainly on the E Croce and Partinelone plots. The land is ploughed and tilled, and organic fertilizers are used. In recent years, the estate has innovated with new wines such as O Bà, Biancu Marinu and L'Altru Biancu. These carefully-crafted wines remain good ambassadors for Corsican vineyards, but care must be taken not to erase too much of their individuality: some of the wines, more formatted than in the past, give pride of place to technicality.

Note and review by M. GILLES D. Published on 12/01/2024

Slightly vinous, this 100% Nieilluciu is a rosé with a fresh character, flowing and dapper, with a tangy, slightly spicy fruitiness that stimulates the palate with its dynamism and freshness around a soft, slightly unctuous texture. Full-bodied, with an elegant, mineral finish. Relatively expensive bottle. More fragrant than the 2021, with a touch of sparkle, this rosé offers a wide range of tasting possibilities, from a simple aperitif to a generous, convivial dish of tagliatelle with smoked salmon, fresh cream with dill, not forgetting Parmesan cheese. Score = 3.8.
