Clos Canereccia (Fossati, Mosconi, Castelletto, Monvigliero, Lazzarito) Rouge – Red – 2021:
Clos Canereccia: A Bold & Aromatic Corsican Red
The Clos Canereccia Red Wine is the signature bottling from this esteemed estate, a true expression of Corsica’s mineral-rich eastern terroir near Aléria. Crafted primarily from the noble Niellucciu grape (Corsica’s Sangiovese), blended with Grenache and Syrah, this wine benefits from organic farming practices and meticulous aging in large oak vats (foudres) and tronconic tanks.
Tasting Profile (Reference Vintage)
- Color: Deep, intense ruby, showing subtle garnet edges with maturity.
- Nose: Powerful and complex, opening with concentrated aromas of stewed black fruits (black cherry, plum), leading into distinctive notes of Corsican scrubland (maquis/garrigue), and a hint of game and vanilla from the careful oak aging.
- Palate: Full-bodied, explosive, and persistent. The tannins are firm yet beautifully integrated, providing an elegant structure. The finish is long, spicy, and showcases the unique minerality of the island’s soil.
Pairing & Serving Suggestions
This powerful Corsican red demands hearty, flavorful cuisine. We highly recommend decanting for at least one hour to let the full aromatic complexity unfold. Serve at 60-64°F (16-18°C).
