Général de la Révolution - 2018 - Jean Charles Abbatucci
Domaine Comte Abbatucci
A powerful nose, with white fruits, citrus, and subtle brioche aromas... A well-balanced palate, with beautiful freshness and length. A concentration of all the Abbatucci savoir-faire, this is a sublimely rich and extremely surprising wine.

A blended cuvée: Biancone, Carcajolo Bianco, Paga Debbiti, Riminese, Rossola Brandinca and Vermentino, grown on granite sands. The vines are 60 years old and farmed biodynamically (certified by DEMETER since 2000), with horse ploughing, green cover between the rows, and sheep grazing through the winter. Vinification: hand picking, low yields, direct pressing, prolonged maturation for this bottling, in 600-litre barrels that have seen several wines. Light filtration, sensible use of sulphur. A precious cuvée for connoisseurs.
