From the land of d'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers comes this keen-edged little number. Noted wine critic, Robert M. Parker, Jr., has called it 'among the greatest white wine values in the world.' Vivid and fresh of aroma, hinting at citrus, say ruby red grapefruit and peach; light on its feet and low in alcohol, crisp, chalky dry, both tantalizing and refreshing, stirring the salivary glands something wonderful. Serve this one up well-chilled for maximum refreshment.

Located idylically near the town of Aghione on the Costa Serena between towering snow-capped mountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Vetriccie estate was purchased by the Barcelo family in 1966. It now spreads over 120 hectares and is planted to an harmonious blend of continental and native varietals. Vetriccie, the Corsican wicker that grows near the vineyards is a symbol of their unspoiled nature. And Daniel Barcelo, the current owner, is firmly commited to a viticulture that respects the Corsican nature. Produce of 50% Niellucciu, 35% Sciaccarellu and 15% Grenache planted to soils characterized by clay sediments left over by the evaporation of the Miocene sea some 5 million years ago, this 2019 vintage Corse rosé is a lovely pale pink with seeming tinges of azure Tyrrhenian Sea blue in color; ultra-fresh aromas on full display suggestive of peach, tart red berries and a waft of the macchia mediterranea; vibrant and completely dry on the tongue with compelling flavors that echo well those first inviting whiffs and get those salivary glands all atwitter.
