Cap Corse – Domaine Pieretti Blanc 2021 - £26

Crisp, saline and cool, it’s the antidote to a hot summer’s day in the Mediterranean. Grown on clay and schist soils, its slatey minerality, intense floral nose is rounded out by honeydew melon, white peach and pineapple notes with a citrus tang to finish.
