Producer: Clos Venturí
Description: Clos Venturi is a 28-hectare vineyard within Domaine Vico in the
northeast of Corsica. Current winemaker Emmanuel (Manu)
Venturi and his father Jean-Marc separated this plot from
Domaine Vico after identifying the potential of its ancient
sandstone soils and sheltered position, surrounded by forests and
mountains. Certified both organic and biodynamic, Manu has
introduced sheep and chickens to the vineyard, providing natural
fertiliser and weed control alongside beehives to further improve
biodiversity. Yields are deliberately kept low and the vineyards are
worked by horsepower to reduce soil compaction.
Tasting Note : Pale straw in colour with green reflections, this 100% Vermentinu
opens with a refreshing bouquet of white flowers, citrus and
orchards fruits. The palate is rich yet fresh and balanced, with an
alluring fruit-driven and floral expression and a persistent finish.
