Description

San Ghjuvà Trimà Brut: a fresh and indulgent Corsican sparkling wine made from Vermentinu

San Ghjuvà Trimà Brut from Vignerons d’Aghione is a sparkling cuvée that invites you to discover another side to Corsican viticulture. With its Mediterranean character, delicate bubbles and generous aromatic expression, this sparkling white wine adds a touch of conviviality to aperitifs and moments of togetherness. It forms part of the Trimà range, whose name evokes the idea of a gentle tremor in the Corsican language, referring to the effervescence and finesse of the bubbles.

Made from Vermentinu, Corsica’s iconic grape variety also known as Vermentino, Trimà Brut showcases a variety particularly prized for its freshness and rich aroma. This traditional Mediterranean grape variety offers a lovely fruity and floral expression, perfectly suited to the production of a convivial sparkling wine.

On tasting, this Corsican sparkling wine displays a luminous pale yellow colour. Its delicate nose reveals notes of honeysuckle, lychee and pineapple, offering an aromatic palette that is both floral and exotic. On the palate, the bubbles complement a light and supple texture. A subtle sensation of sweetness balances the freshness, giving the wine an approachable and indulgent character. With an alcohol content of 11 per cent, this cuvée retains a light and pleasant profile.

Les Vignerons d’Aghione present a modern sparkling wine here, part of an approach that celebrates the island’s wine-growing heritage whilst prioritising the immediate pleasure of tasting.

As an aperitif, Trimà Brut is the perfect accompaniment to petits fours, bottarga on toast and seafood dishes. With a meal, it also pairs well with scallops au gratin, seafood or delicate fish dishes.

Served at between 10 and 12 °C, this sparkling white wine from Corsica is a lovely alternative to traditional sparkling wines, adding a Mediterranean touch to your receptions and celebrations.
