A standard-bearer for modern Corsican wine, Clos Venturi has been showcasing the island’s finest terroirs for over two decades—with consistently impressive results.

Based in Piedigriggio, the estate holds a prestigious 3-star rating from Revue du Vin de France (RVF), France’s most influential wine magazine. Jean-Marc and Manu Venturi work with Corsica’s native grape varieties, farming biodynamically and paying close attention to every detail. Their vineyards, set on cool soils of schist and sandstone, are managed parcel by parcel, allowing for precision and expression. The wines are aged primarily in concrete eggs, with only a minimal use of oak to gently support the structure without overpowering the wine’s natural character.

The result? Wines of elegance, depth, and irresistible charm—earning the Venturis a well-deserved place among the leading names of Corsican wine, alongside Canarelli, Abbatucci, and Vaccelli.
