Ajaccio Unu Vaccelli (no reserve) 2019

The wine

An emblematic figure in Corsican winemaking and particularly coveted by wine lovers in search of something new, Domaine Vaccelli has crafted a rosé that sets itself apart from what we usually see in this appellation. It is made of rare, native varietals that have enjoyed the granite and quartz soils in which they grow organically. The idea is for the wine to reflect its characterful terroir. This means it was matured in containers that don’t influence the taste or texture of the final product. This rosé is a blend of Sciaccarellu, Grenache, and Cinsault, aged in stainless steel vats.
In the glass, it carries a ripe bouquet of red fruit and white, fleshy fruit like peach. These aromas introduce a mature and persistent palate that closes on a saline finish.
We recommend savouring this wine in its youth and serving it with a summery dish like a rustic tomato tart, salmon with peppers, or lamb-stuffed aubergine.
