Clos Canarelli

Clos Canarelli produces wines from Corsica, the Mediterranean island whose granite and schist soils yield distinctive expressions of native and regional varieties. The winery's BG Biancu Gentile, made from the indigenous Biancu Gentile grape, demonstrates the mineral precision that defines Corsican white wine. Its Corse Figari Blanc, built on Vermentino, shows the aromatic breadth and salinity characteristic of the variety in this sun-exposed terroir. The Corse Figari Rosé blends Nielluccio, Grenache, and Sciacarello—a combination that captures the complexity of Corsican red grapes in a dry, structured rosé format. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Spectator, reflecting their standing within serious wine criticism. Corsica's isolation and unique microclimate create conditions for wines that balance ripeness with acidity, a signature of the island's viticultural identity.
