The estate

Based in the high-altitude village of Ponte Leccia, Clos Venturi is one of Corsica’s newest estates, founded in the early 2000s from the division of the finest terroirs of the Vico estate, another property of Jean-Marc and Manu Venturi.

The vineyard

This Corsican estate watches over a vineyard of around twenty hectares.

The wine

"Altare" is a Vin de France white wine made from vines averaging 10 years old, planted on a terraced plot.
