This small area in eastern France is a missing piece of the puzzle for many wine lovers.

Thanks to our selection, dive into the complex whites and thirst-quenching reds that characterise a tiny region, which is, quite rightly, starting to catch on.

Muriel Giudicelli is from Corsica but grew up mostly outside of the island. She traveled back to the island frequently to stay with family during vacations.

Like many vignerons who aren’t born into a winemaking family, her path to wine came through university courses. 

Muriel took the unconventional route of training with small domaines all over France to learn the craft, while waiting for any good opportunities to arise in Patrimonio, in the north of Corsica. 

In 1996, she jumped on an opportunity: 5ha of terrific old vines in a great part of Patrimonio. From day one, she farmed organically. She obtained organic certification in 2006 and biodynamic certification in 2012. 

Muriel’s holdings (10ha) are all in the highly regarded Campo Gallo (“field of the rooster”) sub-region of Patrimonio, distinct due to its diverse pockets of green clay, red clay, granite, schist, and limestone.
