Cépages : Morescola, Morescono, Aleatico, Carcajolo Nero, Montanaccia, Sciaccarello et Nielluccio.
Sol : Arènes granitiques.
Vinification, élevage : Réception par gravité de la vendange égrappée et non foulée. Macération pelliculaire en tronconiques thermo régulées et cuvaison durant environ 1 mois avec des pigeages et des remontages quotidiens. Fermentations spontanées sous-bois. Décuvage et pressurage du marc, séparation des jus à l’entonnage et élevage en demi-muid durant 12 mois. Soutirage et assemblage en cuve inox, élevage de 6 mois avant filtration clarifiante puis mise en bouteille.
Dégustation : Robe rouge avec des reflets grenat intense. Le nez est puissant et complexe évoquant les parfums de la corse avec des touches de fruits rouges mûrs, acidulées (groseille et cassis) ainsi que des arômes plus subtiles de plantes aromatiques (myrte). La bouche est ample avec une belle longueur, finement boisée. On y retrouve la note minérale caractéristique du domaine. Les tanins sont élégants, la fin de bouche est complexe avec une persistance aromatique soutenue par ses notes de fruits mûrs.
Suggestions : Ouvrir 1h avant, servir en carafe à 16°C. Ce vin se dégustera bien avec une épaule d’agneau farcie aux clémentines confites.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
