Clos Venturi 1769 Rouge 2023

This is a red wine from high altitude vineyards in central Corsica, grown on granite soils in the Restonica valley. Indigenous varieties such as Niellucciu and Sciaccarellu define its Mediterranean character, shaped by warm days and cool mountain nights. The result is a structured yet finely tuned expression of Corsican terroir.

The estate focuses on precision farming at elevation, where long ripening seasons build aromatic depth while preserving natural acidity. Hand harvesting and low intervention winemaking ensure clarity of fruit and a strong sense of place. Fermentation is carefully managed to support texture without masking varietal detail.

• The nose shows dark cherry, wild blackberry and crushed herbs with floral lift.
• The palate delivers red berry fruit, plum and savoury spice with mineral tension.
• The finish is dry, structured and persistent with garrigue and stony freshness.

Roast duck with orange glaze and thyme complements the wines dark fruit and savoury spice while softening its structure. Serve at a cool room temperature to highlight freshness and maintain balance against richer flavours.
