Domain: Antoine-Marie Arena

We’re heading to the Ile de Beauté, more specifically to the Patrimonio appellation with Domaine Antoine-Marie Arena. This wine maker, son of the famous Antoine Arena, has been gradually taking over the family domain shared between him and his brother, Jean-Baptiste. And the results speak for themselves, these wines are brilliant! They’ve already been lauded by wine lovers and professional critics alike, and we have no qualms about highly recommending them!

Antoine-Marie Arena is the younger son of the famous Antoine Arena, a legendary Patrimonio wine maker in Corsica. After having worked on the family domain since 2004, Antoine-Marie started making his own wines in 2014. He works on 6 hectares including the Carco and Hauts de Carco terroirs, and these are planted with Nielluccio for the reds, and Bianco Gentile, Vermentinu and Muscat for the whites. The result is everything we would expect and more: wines already among the finest in Corsica, offering crisp fruit, elegance and depth.

What the guides say...

La Revue du vin de France

The expression of the wines and the delicacy of the new, blended cuvées confirm a real talent. The coherence and depth of the wine, given the utmost attention from the vine to the cellar, leave no room for doubt.
