Discovering wines and flavours

No trip to Corsica is complete without meeting its producers. The ‘Gusti di Corsica’ brand and the network of Corsican food fairs allow you to discover the excellence of local food and drink directly at source, bypassing intermediaries and industrial retailers. From PDO chestnut flour to traditional cheeses, right through to the organic wines of the ‘Patrimonio’ appellation (also produced by the Vincenti family at Domaine Vincenti in Poggio d’Oletta), every taste tells the story of an unbreakable bond with the land. Among the events to note in your diary for the coming months are the festivals taking place across the island’s interior, such as the famous Green Orizonte festival in Balagne, a veritable open-air workshop dedicated to the latest trends in sustainable tourism.
