FEATURES
🏰 The 2024 Clos Canarelli Figari Rosé is a refined, terroir-driven rosé from one of Corsica's most revered estates, crafted in the sun-drenched Figari appellation. Clos Canarelli is known for its commitment to biodynamic viticulture and respect for both grape variety and terroir. This rosé is a distinctive expression of Corsican winemaking, blending Grenache, Sciaccarellu, and Niellucciu grapes, and is considered a serious, gastronomic rosé. The 2024 vintage asserts itself with great frankness, signaling a precise and luminous character.
In the glass, it shows a delicate, pale onion-skin to soft salmon hue with glints of copper. The nose is expressive yet precise, offering wild strawberry, raspberry, Corsican maquis herbs (thyme, rosemary), blood orange zest, white peach, rose petal, crushed stone, and a faint saline breeze. On the palate, it is dry, tense, and beautifully textured, with a core of red berries, citrus, and subtle stone fruit framed by bright, mouthwatering acidity. Notes of pomegranate, pink grapefruit, white pepper, and anise develop, supported by a fine mineral backbone. The finish is long, clean, elegant, and often saline.
🍴 This is a true food rosé, ideal with Mediterranean and coastal cuisine. It pairs beautifully with grilled sea bream, red mullet, octopus, shellfish, charcuterie (including Corsican wild boar), herb-roasted chicken, Niçoise-style salads, and Provençal or Corsican dishes featuring tomatoes, olives, and fresh herbs. It also shines with sushi, sashimi, and lightly spiced Asian dishes. Consider it with creamy cheeses like Brie and goat cheese.
🥂 Perfect for a sophisticated summer lunch, a seaside gathering, a fine-dining experience, or any social event where a high-quality, gastronomic rosé is appreciated. Serve at 10-12°C (50-54°F). 【Refined expression of Corsican terroir】
