E Croce Wines

AOP Patrimonio

The AOC range was born from the selection of our most beautiful plots of vines located on the unique terroir of E Croce. It is available in white, red and rosé for the AOC PATRIMONIO and in sweet white for the AOC Muscat du Cap Corse. The wines bear the imprint of their terroir in each vintage; freshness and minerality to give precise and smooth wines.
