The profile of the Cap Corse Mattei Blanc aperitif wine is defined by its distinctly Corsican components. Its all-mistelle base is of Vermentino and Muscat Petit Grains, lending a terrific minerality, acidity and floral tones. The local Cedrat, is a thick peeled ancestor of lemon, adds unique citrus aroma and a silky texture. Since its creation in 1872 by Louis-Napoléon Mattei, Cap Corse Mattei is the oldest and best known aperitif of Corsica. Still today family owned, and all macerations, aging and bottling are done in house. As a quinquina, it is flavored with cinchona bark (quinine), which adds spice and depth in the mid and back palate.
