Technical sheet written by the domaine:

WARNING: this indigenous grape variety is obviously not taken into account in the "manuals" of the Protected Designation of Origin Figari. This cuvée is therefore a "simple" wine from France. As such, and don't ask me why, it is forbidden to explicitly display the name of the grape variety (thus symbolized by BG) or the vintage on the label. You will find a "2021" in very small print, included in the lot number (starting with L), inscribed at the bottom right of the label.
