The estate and the wine |

A true ambassador for Corsican wine and awarded 2 stars by the RVF guide, Yves Leccia is one of the island’s most renowned winemakers. Since 2005, he has been based at E’Croce, crafting wines from 17 hectares in Patrimonio, including the prized Partinelone vineyard—a sun-drenched hillside shaped by the sea breeze, home to his signature YL range.
Now fully committed to biodynamic farming, Leccia is a passionate advocate for Corsica’s native grape varieties. His winemaking is all about freedom and authenticity, producing wines that are pure, precise, and effortlessly elegant. |

A blend of 80% Grenache and Niellucciu, the 2023 Red IGP Île de Beauté YL is a bold yet silky wine with plenty of character. Sourced from the Partinelone vineyard, where clay-limestone soils meet schist, it delivers a fresh, supple red with generous notes of red berries, rose, and peony. Bright with freshness and elegance, it’s both refreshing and full of flavour. A perfect match for roasted poultry or delicate cured meats. |
