Tarra di Sognu 2021

The freshness and complexity of a Corsican white wine

The estate

Yves Canarelli, a visionary and passionate winegrower, took over a vineyard near Figari, in the south of Corsica, in 1993, which he renamed Clos Canarelli. A defender of local grape varieties, he restructured and expanded this terroir to 28 hectares of vines.

The vineyard

The vineyard has been certified Organic since 2002 and biodynamic since 2006. Vinified in modern facilities, the wines of this Corsican estate are recognised for their precision and their authentic expression of their original terroir.

Blend

Produced as a Vin de France, this cuvée is characterised by its variety of grape varieties, including Vermentinu (80%), Carcagholu Neru, Rimenese, Biancu Gentile, as well as Genovese, from Corsica and Italy.

Characteristics and tasting tips from Tarra di Sognu blanc 2021 from Clos Canarelli

Tasting

Nose                                                                                                                                                                             
The nose is expressive, mingling floral (white flowers) and plant (bergamot, aniseed) fragrances.

Palate                                    
The palate has a lovely salinity and a delightful minerality and aromatic purity.
