Domaine Comte Abbatucci

In Corsica, Domaine Comte Abbatucci is situated in the Taravo valley, where it preserves and enhances an ancient ampelographic heritage. The vineyard is managed biodynamically and predominantly planted with indigenous grape varieties, including Sciaccarellu, Vermentinu, Barbarossa, and Carcajolu, all well-suited to the hillsides and the Mediterranean climate tempered by maritime influence.

Vineyard management focuses on achieving balanced ripeness, thereby preserving the aromatic finesse and natural freshness of the grapes. Vinifications are conducted with precision, avoiding excessive extraction. The resulting wines exhibit supple textures and a measured amplitude, underpinned by delicate and expressive fruit.

The winemaking process, which is often lengthy, is carried out with restraint to develop depth without weighing down the wines. This approach allows the vintages to strike a balance between the richness characteristic of the Mediterranean climate and a distinct island freshness. The estate’s work as a whole reflects a strong and consistent identity, rooted in the Corsican terroirs and the unique character of their grape varieties.
