The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Acclaimed as one of Corsica’s best estates, awarded 3 stars in the famous RVF Guide, Yves Canarelli watches over the most beautiful terroirs of the Island of Beauty. He has been cultivating his 33 hectares of wine with a biodynamic approach since 1997. Located in the sectors of Figari and Bonifacio, drawing from the 40 or so Corsican grape varieties to find the ones best suited for his terroir and taste, the estate is known to craft wines of absolute precision and style.
Wine With its distinctive style, far from Provençal archetypes, the 2022 Figari Rosé Corse takes full advantage of its identity. It's a broad, invigorating rosé with fatness, texture, fresh citrus fruit, and juicy flavors of white fruit. Its body and great finesse are appreciated. One of Corsica's finest rosés, it's perfect with baked fish or pan-fried prawns.
Vinification Hand harvested. Traditional vinification, whole grapes pressed. Aged in stainless steel vats for 5 to 6 months.

Certified organic wine. (not mentioned on back label).
