🍇 Pieru Maquis Rosé – IGP Île de Beauté

IGP Île de Beauté: a vibrant, intense, and sun-kissed Corsican rosé

The Pieru Maquis Rosé is a rosé wine from the Île de Beauté Protected Geographical Indication, produced in Corsica, a wine-growing region shaped by the Mediterranean sun, mountainous terrain, and its proximity to the sea. This cuvée showcases a distinctive island identity and a generous aromatic profile.

According to the merchant Giambagli, the Pieru Maquis Rosé stands out for its personality and flavorful aromatic palette. The vines benefit from abundant sunshine, tempered by the maritime influence and the presence of the mountains. These conditions contribute to the identity of Corsican wines and their Mediterranean expression.

The stated blend combines several grape varieties found in the Corsican vineyards: Grenache, Nielluccio, Sciaccarellu, and Vermentinu. This combination contributes to the cuvée's personality, designed to offer an expressive and convivial rosé. The producer presents it as a vibrant, intense, and full-bodied wine. 

Versatile at the table, the Pieru Maquis Rosé pairs well with summer meals, grilled dishes, and aperitifs with friends. It is particularly well suited to beef carpaccio, grilled sardines, or herb-infused goat cheese, pairings recommended by the merchant.
