2023 Domaine Fazi ‘Ile de Beaute’ Rosé

Fazi Wines is situated on the sandy east coast of Corsica and is planted to the indigenous variety of Sciaccarellu as well as Merlot, Grenache and Cinsault. Established by Vincent Fazi in the 1970s, this vineyard produces only rosé wines. A sound introduction to Corsican rosé, this showcases the island’s rockier and more chiselled take on the style (relative to Provence).  Tight, tense, saline, with pink grapefruit and watermelon and citrus rind, it’s underpinned with granitic minerals and bone dry.
