Yves Canarelli took over his grandfather’s vines in 1993. In 20 years, he has shifted his viticulture over to biodynamics, and reintroduced ancient grape varietals like Cargaghjolu Nero, which nearly went extinct in the 1960s. He also transformed his domain into an ultra-modern estate, to fully benefit from one of the highest rates of sunshine in France. Yves has tested everything: from his viticulture (cultivating a parcel of pre-phylloxera vines, replanting forgotten grape varieties of Figari), to his vinifications (using indigenous yeasts, creating a micro-cuvée using amphorae), maturing wines on their lees, etc.... Here, everything is the subject of constant research. Yves is considered the most talented Corsican vigneron of his generation. The quality of his wines alone has propelled the Figari AOC back to prominence. And his cuvée Carcaghjolu Neru is simply one of the most beautiful cuvées made on the entire Isle of Beauty.
A very rich, effusive nose. On the palate: incredible finesse, perfectly balanced! Not a trace of heaviness, yet tons of freshness and purity. A splendid cuvée which has captured our hearts once again! A wine to be discovered without delay!
A fine, complex nose, with abundant notes of white fruit and flowers, and a touch of mint. On the palate, this wine is delicate, savoury, with lovely body and a long finish. All of this makes for a wine of considerable freshness, drinkability and fruit!
De couleur bronze... Le nez est intense, sur des notes de fruits blancs et florales. En bouche: vin riche, joli gras, avec une forte personnalité, beaucoup de longueur et de fraîcheur. L'amphore, une parfaite maîtrise chez les Canarelli!
A purple-hued wine, a rich bouquet, subtle yet intense, with notes of leather and minerals. On the palate: silky texture, great finesse and balance… this is sound juice indeed. A long, persistent finish. Well-mastered maturation, producing perfectly integrated aromas...
A rosé, yes, but... a top-shelf one, created by Corsica’s enfant terrible Yves Canarelli. A bouquet with notes of small red fruits, thyme, flowers, pepper... Palate: fruity and balanced.
