Domaine Vetriccie Ile De Beaute Rose

The Vetriccie rose is a blend of native Corsican grapes that will be unfamiliar to many of you. The main grape is Nielluccio, Corsica’s most important red grape and a close relative to Italy’s Sangiovese. Up next is Sciaccerello, another of Corsica’s most vital red grapes, and believed to be related to the Ligurian/Tuscan grape Mammolo. And last, but not least, is Grenache, a grape found in almost all French dry rosés.

This combo of grapes is the key to this wine’s deliciousness. The Nielluccio contributes tangy and tart aromas and flavors of watermelon, cranberry, and pomegranate while the Sciaccerello adds hints of white flowers and spice. The Grenache adds a bit of body and hints of white pepper. The net result is a fresh, crisp, and full-flavored rosé that over-delivers in a big way.
