SPIRITUEUX
In Ponte Leccia, a high-altitude village located at the crossroads of the roads leading to Bastia, Ajaccio and Calvi, Clos Venturi is one of the most recent estates in Corsica. It comes from the detachment, in 2005, of the best terroirs of the Vico estate, where Jean-Marc and Manu Venturi also produce, on 77 hectares, more technical wines of great diffusion and a good quality-price ratio. A lot of work has been done at Clos Venturi: replanting of indigenous grape varieties, organic farming and use of indigenous yeasts.

It is to the enterprising Manu Venturi that we owe the rebirth of the mountainous region of Ponte-Leccia, situated between 260 and 360 m of altitude at the foot of the highest peaks of the island. Very far from the sea!
His family took over the vineyards of the Vico estate in 1987, restructuring and modernising the vineyard and the cellar, and isolating the Clos Venturi, a formidable enclosure on which old vines have been replanted. In this gelatinous area, he has created some of the freshest and most complex wines of the island's vineyards, whose quality continues to improve.
Alongside these elite micro-cuvées, the level of Domaine Vico's wines should be applauded, particularly the Le Bois du Cerf cuvées, offered at low prices and produced in large volumes, which are ambassadors of the talent of this visionary winemaker.
