The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Almost without rival and awarded 3 stars in the RVF Guide, Yves Canarelli oversees some of the finest terroirs in Corsica. Since his first vintage in 1997, this unwavering perfectionist has continually strived for improvement and the ideal approach, cultivating close to 40 hectares biodynamically in Figari and Bonifacio, and selecting the most suitable endemic grape varieties for his taste and terroir.

This exemplary winemaker produces some of the most spectacular grand crus of the Mediterranean arc, with fresh and saline expressions that remain unmatched, thus writing the finest chapters of Corsican viticulture in an impeccable range.
Wine 2022 white Amphora is a 100% Vermentinu from granite parcels, vinified without added sulfur in a clay amphora, and without skin maceration to preserve the varietal's character. The nose is marked by juicy pear and notes of autolysis from the lees. The palate is rich and generous, with a beautiful tangy structure supporting the whole. This is undoubtedly a wine for the table, best paired with white meat, such as a veal curry. Drinkable over the next three to five years. Rated 93/100 by the Committee.
Vinification Hand-harvested from granite plots, vinified in clay amphora for 1 month and aged for one month in amphora. No added sulfur, fining or filtration.

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