Tasting Notes & Ratings

33% Minustellu, 33% Niellucciu, 33% Grenache
"O Bà! "is a new wine added to the estate's "Heritage Vintages" range. It bears this name, which means "daddy" in Corsican, in homage to my father, Pierre-Joseph Leccia, who passed on to me his passion for this profession.
Tasting notes
"O Bà!" possesses all the attributes of a vintage with excellent aging potential. The Niellucciu lends structure and backbone, the Minustellu contributes roundness and depth, while the Grenache brings vibrant fruit and aromatic lift. A beautifully balanced and expressive wine, crafted to evolve gracefully over the coming years in the cellar.
