Details and technical informations about Winery Clos Fornelli's Rouge.
Discover the grape variety: Grosse Arvine
Most certainly originating from the Swiss Valais - Martigny and Fully vineyards - it is the result of a natural intraspecific crossing between the rèze and a child of the arvine with which it should not be confused. Today, grosse Arvine is practically no longer cultivated and remains completely unknown in France, as in all other wine-producing countries.

The wine region of Corsica
Corsica is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, located between the southeast coast of Provence and the west coast of Tuscany. Although it is closer to Italy, Corsica has been under French rule since 1769 and is one of the 26 regions of France. The island's Italian origins are evident in its wines, which are mainly made from the classic Italian Grapes Vermentino and Sangiovese (known here as Rolle and Nielluccio respectively). Despite its remoteness, Corsican winemakers have amassed an impressive and diverse portfolio of grape varieties - there are very few places on earth where Pinot Noir, Tempranillo and Barbarossa grow side by side.
The word of the wine: Sour
Said of a wine that is unpleasantly pungent and has a vinegar-like odour.
