Domaine Peraldi Wine Estate: Private Tasting in the Ajaccio Vineyards

Step into one of Corsica's oldest and most decorated wine estates — Domaine Comte Peraldi — for an intimate private tasting of rare indigenous varietals like Nielluccio and Vermentino, poured in centuries-old cellars just minutes from port.

What to expect

A short taxi ride from the port deposits you at a handsome stone domaine surrounded by Grenache vines. The estate's guide walks you through the vaulted cellars, explaining how Corsica's granite soils and sea winds impart a mineral, sun-kissed signature unlike any mainland French wine. You'll taste four to six wines — from a crisp Vermentino to a robust Nielluccio rouge — paired with local charcuterie, olives, and brocciu. The garden terrace, shaded by ancient chestnut trees, is the perfect place to linger over a final glass.
