Chioso Novo, 2022

A Corsican white with real weight - fuller and rounder than the zippy Vermentino most people know, grown on granite hills in the island's south.

A fuller, rounder take on Vermentino from the Courreges family's organic, hand-worked vineyards on the granite hills of southern Corsica. Citrus and wet stone sit alongside brioche, fresh butter and white flowers. It has generous weight, kept lively by a mineral streak of acidity, and a long finish. Think of it as Corsican Vermentino with the body of a richer Chardonnay.
