The 2024 Clos Venturi Brama Biancu Gentile is a distinctive and beautifully textured Corsican white made from 100% Biancu Gentile, one of the island’s rare indigenous grape varieties. Produced biodynamically by Clos Venturi, this wine showcases the unique character of Corsica’s mountainous terroir. The nose is expressive and aromatic, revealing notes of pear, lemon, ripe apricot and wild flowers, complemented by subtle herbal and mineral nuances.
On the palate, it is rich yet beautifully balanced, with flavours of orchard fruits, citrus and delicate almond notes supported by vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral edge. Lees ageing in concrete tanks adds texture and complexity, while the finish is long, fresh and refined. Elegant and characterful, it offers a fascinating expression of one of Corsica’s most exciting native varieties.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic choice for customers looking to explore something unique and terroir-driven. Combining Mediterranean richness with freshness and minerality, it is both distinctive and highly food-friendly. Enjoy now or cellar over the next 5–8 years. Perfect with grilled fish, lobster, prawns, Mediterranean seafood dishes, roast chicken or soft goat’s cheese.
