Notes and pairings

Tasting notes

The 2022 Monte Mare Rouge vintage boasts a bright, clear ruby ​​color. The nose is delicate, offering a bouquet of fresh red fruit, violet, and maquis herbs. On the palate, the attack is supple and ethereal, carried by a natural acidity that lends it freshness. The structure is fine, the tannins well-integrated, and the finish lingers elegantly with floral and slightly spicy notes, typical of the Corsican terroir.

Food & wine pairings

This wine pairs wonderfully with Mediterranean grilled meats, Corsican charcuterie, or even a pizza with fresh tomato and basil.

The Domaine Comte Abbatucci vineyard stretches across granite slopes between 100 and 300 meters above sea level, overlooking the Taravo Valley. The soil, composed of decomposed granite, imparts a unique finesse and minerality to the wines. Cultivated biodynamically, the vines are meticulously tended, respecting lunar cycles and biodiversity. This approach fosters the pure expression of the indigenous grape varieties in each cuvée, of which Monte Mare is a harmonious example.

Owner and history

Jean-Charles Abbatucci now manages the family estate with passion and conviction. Heir to a long Corsican lineage, he has revived forgotten grape varieties while embracing biodynamic principles. His commitment to nature and the island's winemaking traditions makes him a respected craftsman of the living world. Thanks to his humanistic and sensory vision of wine, wines like Monte Mare reflect a subtle balance between roots, identity, and modernity.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine Comte Abbatucci is based on a gentle and natural approach: manual harvesting, spontaneous fermentations and very delicate extraction.
Monte Mare 2022 is vinified in stainless steel tanks to preserve the integrity of the fruit and the freshness of the juice. A short aging period in tanks allows the wine to retain all its energy, without any artificial enhancement, thus revealing a sincere and spontaneous interpretation of the Corsican terroir.
