The wine

Bright red-ruby, with an aromatic nose of pure red and black cherries and herbal lift.

The red blends Niellucciu and Sciaccarellu, the two Corsican natives, Niellucciu being genetically identical to Sangiovese and brought to the island under Genoese rule. The herbal note is the maquis, the dense aromatic scrub that covers Corsica and turns up in almost everything grown among it. Domaine Vico is in the Corsican interior, in the foothills north-east of Ponte Leccia, at altitude and well away from the coast.

On the rugged island of Corsica, Domaine Vico crafts characterful wines from the region native grapes. Set in the granite hills of the island interior, it farms in harmony with a wild, sun-drenched landscape. These are wines with a real sense of place.

Vico works with Corsica distinctive varieties, chiefly Vermentinu for whites and the red Nielluccio and Sciaccarello. Careful, modern winemaking keeps the fruit fresh and the herbal, Mediterranean character vivid. The style is honest and generous.

The range centres on the Bois du Cerf label, offering bright whites and juicy, savoury reds at genuinely friendly prices. Each captures the maquis-scented soul of the island.

To pour a Vico wine is to taste Corsica at its most inviting. Fresh, herbal, and full of southern warmth, these are wines made for easy, sunlit drinking.
