Producers
From vineyards on a plateau overlooking the Adriatic Sea, and made from Verdeca, an indigenous grape variety, Gianni Carparelli’s “Faraone” is refreshingly green, rich, and briny, like a bowl of Castelvetrano olives. There’s lots to love for Sancerre and Corsica fans on a budget.

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
