Yves Canarelli, a former student of economics who turned to oenology, has been making quite an impact in France and abroad since taking over the family Domaine in Figari circa 1993.  Yves' wines show tension and a bit of reduction in their youth as they are built to age gracefully.  With a little air this wine opens up to notes of stone fruit, lemon oil and a distinct Mediterranean salinity.
