About this winery

Paul, the eldest member of the Suzzoni family, developed a passion for viticulture at an early age, and decided to study at the Lycée Agricole in Borgo. Supported by his father Antoine, he acquired a few plots of land and succeeded in setting up in business. The dream was launched. Despite a dilettante period for insular viticulture, Paul and his father planted their first Niellucciu vines in 1973 in the communes of Lumiu and Montegrosso, and produced their first cuvée three years later....

Product notes

Terroirs: Monzogranitic sands The estate's location between the mountains and the sea, combined with the area's clay-granite and sandy-loam geology, promotes a beautiful balance and concentrated juices. Tribbiera is the traditional method of threshing wheat, an ancestral practice where Corsican farmers threshed the wheat with oxen.

Production notes

Mechanical harvest in the morning. Direct pressing followed by cold stabilization. Cold fermentation (between 12 and 16°C). Aged on fine lees for 5 months in stainless steel vats.

Tasting notes

The nose is floral and delicate with notes of iris, rose, and orange peel. The palate is fresh and fruity, with a lingering salinity. Pairs well with salad, fish, and cheese.
