Powerful, complex nose, broad aromatic palette carried by notes of black fruit jam, maquis, eucalyptus, soft spices, undergrowth... Ample palate, very beautiful volume, smooth and luscious tannins, long and diffuse finish.
Simon Giacometti
Simon and Sarah Giacometti, brother and sister, are at the helm of the eponymous Estate located in the small village of Casta, 15 minutes from Saint Florent and the Mediterranean Sea, Northern Corsica. Their father and grandfather decided to buy the domaine in 1987, a true family-oriented and atypical adventure since one was a potter and the other was the head of a public works company... The apprenticeship was done on the job, the beginnings were promising but it was another time that of the ads for glyphosate, Sarah reminds us. As soon as Christian, Sarah and Simon's father, took over the reins, organic farming became the norm in the vineyard. It is the arrival of the children at the Domaine, in 2006, which impels these same principles in the cellar. Today, Giacometti has 26 hectares in production, with a large majority of native grape varieties, and wines that transport you under the sun of Corsica!
