Only a small amount of So2 is used at bottling and appears on the label. 

 
Tasting Notes

An energetic seaside Corsican Vermentinu - it's Vermentino, but quite as you know it!

Textural with a mix of citrus fruits and pear, alongside more savoury notes and Mediterranean herbs. Dry with a mineral core and saline finish. Very complex and interesting wine.
