Yves Leccia's 'YL' Blanc is a literal extension of a Mediterranean summer vacation in a bottle. This dry, high-acid white from Corsica is built for those who crave sea-mist salinity and the sun-ripened snap of a fresh nectarine. Keep a bottle chilled for whenever you need to transport yourself to a beach on the île de Beauté.

"Sun-ripened stone fruits like peaches and nectarines meet a distinct sea-breeze finish and fresh herbs. It’s elegant, mineral-driven, and slightly less than medium-bodied. Pair with grilled fish, oysters, or a summer salad." — Harvest Wine Shop

YVES LECCIA

Raised in a small village in the heart of Patrimonio, Yves worked alongside his father in the vines and cellar at the earliest age he could. The Leccias have been making wine from the finest terroirs of Patrimonio for countless generations. Originally working alongside his sister, he decided to branch off on his own in 2004 and focus on the terroir he felt was best. “E Croce” sits on a thin chalk soil above a bedrock of pure schist, facing the gulf of St. Florent. Yves is a firm believer in the idea that if you want something done right you need to do it yourself, tending his vines alone and working the cellar by himself. He keeps his yields low, knows when to harvest , and knows how to let E Croce express itself in the wines.
