Located inland at 400 metres above sea level, the vineyard is planted on a sandstone hill. It is sheltered by the forests and mountains that surround it and has a wide diurnal range, allowing for a slow ripening of the grapes. Basalt, granite, and blue slate make up the complex mosaic of soils and produce lively and mineral wines. The Sciaccarellu vines are on average 30 years old and face southeast.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eUpon arrival at the winery, the hand-harvested Sciaccarellu grapes were 100% destemmed and gently pressed with minimal skin contact to produce a very pale pink colour. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts took place in temperature controlled stainless-steel tanks to preserve the vibrant aromatics. Following fermentation, the wine was matured on its lees for a further six months with weekly bâtonnage to add texture to the palate. Unfined, the wine was cold settled and lightly filtered before bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClos Venturi comprises a 28-hectare vineyard within the Corsican estate of Domaine Vico, planted at 400 metres above sea level on a sandstone hill, surrounded by forests and mountains. 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. 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64539534950777,"sku":"90105225","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/ClosVenturi1769Rose.jpg?v=1789207078","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/clos-venturi-1769-rose-2025","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
