2022 Domaine de Vaccelli, Ile de Beaute, Quartz Rouge

From the granite slopes of southern Corsica, Domaine de Vaccelli is a third-generation family estate focused on indigenous varieties, notably Sciaccarellu and Vermentinu, farmed organically in the Ajaccio appellation. Their wines are precise, mineral-driven, and deeply tied to place, balancing Mediterranean warmth with freshness and restraint. The Quartz Rouge is a vibrant, approachable red led by Sciaccarellu, offering wild strawberry, pomegranate, and herbal notes with crunchy minerality and lift.
