    Producer

    The Domaine Comte Abbatucci vineyard stretches across the granite slopes of the Taravo Valley in Southern Corsica. The old white vines of the Faustine cuvée, rooted in poor, stony soil, draw their character from this sunny, windswept land. Cultivated biodynamically, the vines are worked with respect for nature and the lunar cycles, fostering the authentic expression of ancestral Corsican grape varieties, a true island genetic heritage.

    Owner and history

    Jean-Charles Abbatucci now manages the family estate with a vision that is both traditional and forward-thinking. Heir to a lineage rooted in Corsica for centuries, he has initiated a project to safeguard forgotten indigenous grape varieties. A pioneer of biodynamic viticulture on the island, he crafts exceptional wines, imbued with sincerity and terroir. His commitment to the environment, biodiversity, and Corsican culture makes the estate a model of sustainable and distinctive winemaking.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Comte Abbatucci follows natural and minimally interventionist methods. The grapes are harvested by hand, fermentations are carried out using indigenous yeasts, and vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve aromatic purity.
    For the Faustine Vieilles Vignes 2024 vintage, a light aging on fine lees enhances the wine's texture and complexity without masking the expression of the Corsican terroir. The result is a vibrant, energetic, and remarkably precise wine.
