Yves Leccia’s 2019 Île de Beauté IGP Rouge is a blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Niellucciu, hailing from the northerly appellation of Patrimonio, Corsica.

Île de Beauté – the namesake for many wines produced on the island – translates to ‘island of beauty’ in English.

This is a beautiful wine, indeed. It is medium ruby with ripe cherry, strawberry, and kirsch notes leaping out of the glass; it also offers licorice, fennel, violet, and subtle meaty characteristics. The fruit is unmistakably intense and concentrated. I suspect it’s a reflection of the dry, sun-soaked climate on this beautiful, mountainous Mediterranean Island.

This is such a versatile and food-friendly wine – it’s definitely worth a taste if you have the chance (preferably while gazing upon Corsica’s coastal seascapes). Cheers to the wines of Corsica! — 3 years ago

Felt like this #brunello was only starting to hit its prime drinking window, classic #sangiovese notes but dare I say a touch underwhelming? — 6 months ago

Potpourri, flower petals. A lot of blue fruit. Transcends into lion’s mane, blossoming fruit that lingers on the nose and carries across the pallet. It leaves me wanting more … Really clean. This is CA all the way and not too hot. Well done. — 7 months ago
