Intensity
This blend from one of Corsica's iconic producers strikes an irresistibly subtle and precise balance between velvety and fresh.
More infoA skilful blend of indigenous varieties from a clay and limestone terroir. The grapes are harvested by hand, de-stemmed, fermented, and matured for eight months in foudres and demi-muids. This white wine then reveals a complex, indulgent yet delicate nose with hints of white flowers, and very ripe, white- and yellow-fleshed fruits. The velvety palate is lifted by a delicately saline finish. Serve this wine at 12°C and pair it with salmon or tuna.

About the Producer Clos Canarelli
Clos Canarelli is one of Corsica's most emblematic domains thanks to the exceptional quality of its red and white wines but it is also one of the most innovative. Yves Canarelli has turned this family property into one of Corsica's most dynamic domains. It consists of 38 hectares spread out over the Figari appellation, one of France's sunniest winemaking regions. The wind and the proximity to the mountains, however, allow the vines to produce chiselled and balanced wines. Yves takes a great interest in Ampelography, the study of grapevines, and the vines been cultivated biodynamically for several years. Yves has also managed to reintroduce some forgotten native grape varieties such as Bianco Gentile, Carcaghjolu and Minustellu, but the domain's achievements don't stop there. Since 2009, Canarelli has produced a red wine from some vines in the village of Orazi that date back to before the phylloxera crisis: the Cuvée Terra d'Orazi is vinified in clay amphorae. Finally, in 2016, the domain was responsible for resurrecting the first Clos de Bonifacio, a limestone rich parcel located above Corsica's most southern town.
