2021 Domaine Alzipratu Cuvée Pumonte Blanc is a characterful white wine from Corsica, France, crafted from old-vine Vermentino (Vermentinu) grown on granite soils in the Calvi area. Produced by the Acquaviva family at Domaine Alzipratu, this wine captures the distinctive maritime-mountain terroir of northern Corsica, where cooling breezes from the Mediterranean preserve freshness and aromatic intensity.
In the glass, it shows a pale straw-yellow colour with delicate aromas of honeysuckle, citrus peel, white peach, and subtle floral notes. The palate is rich and textural with a lightly oily mouthfeel balanced by vibrant acidity, delivering flavours of grapefruit, ripe peach, and citrus fruits that lead to a long, fresh, slightly saline finish typical of Corsican coastal vineyards.
