With a priceless ampelographic collection built up by his father Antoine in the 1960s, Jean-Charles Abbatucci is the guardian of the endemic grape varieties and wine-making traditions of Corsica. This variety of grapes (with melodious names: Carcajolo Bianco, Paga Debbiti, Rossola Brandinca...) coupled with a sumptuous terroir of 14 ha full hillside south of Ajaccio and a demanding viticulture (biodynamic since 2000) explains the special place of Domaine Abbatucci within the Corsican producers. It is with the white wines, certainly among the most beautiful of the Mediterranean basin, that this domain has built up an unequalled reputation.

Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.

One of the two great vintages of the estate, with a dominant vermentino complemented by 10 autochthonous grape varieties in varying proportions, is an exceptional wine with good aging capacities (10 years and more): the General is more lively, its tension going hand in hand with its sparkling length. For this wine the whole aromatic palette of the Corsican scrubland: citrus fruits (citron, kumquat...), verbena, thyme, rosemary, fennel, anise, wild mint, jasmine, pine nuts, dry stones...

    Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.

    The first cuvée Faustine, 100% vermentino, is a direct entry into the Abbatucci universe: floral (aniseed) and delicately apricot on the nose, supple (without any heaviness) and elegant on the palate, with a fine bitterness on the finish.

    Rated 92/100 by La Revue du Vin de France "This cuvée was made in 1998 when my daughter Faustine was born. It is a 100% vermentino planted on granite arena. A brilliantly coloured wine with lots of freshness and minerality. Ideal with fish or white meats." (January 2024)

    Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.

    One of the two great vintages of the domain, dominated by vermentino and supplemented by 10 autochthonous grape varieties in varying proportions, is an exceptional wine with good ageing potential (10 years and more): the Diplomate is full-bodied, sapid and tasty but restrained. For this wine the whole aromatic palette of the Corsican scrubland: citrus fruits (citron, kumquat...), verbena, thyme, rosemary, fennel, anise, wild mint, jasmine, pine nuts, dry stones...

    The 2021 vintage is rated 93-94/100 by the Revue du Vin de France « Des parfums accueillants et frais de fenouil, de cédrat forment un ensemble cristallin, pur et frais, noblement boisé. La bouche offre à la fois une trame mûre et tonique, sans oublier une belle énergie et salinité. »

    Monte Bianco, his greatest red wine, with its light ruby colour, its airy and delicate palate, its superlative freshness and silky tannins, offers all the magic of high altitude sciaccarellu on granitic soil and harvested at optimal maturity. A really great wine!

    Le millésime 2021 est coup de ♥ de la Revue du Vin de France, noté 96/100 « Monte Bianco est une infusion longue et expressive du sciaccarellu. Le fruit et le terroir granitique dominent l'élevage boisé. » (Guide 2024)
