'Verticale' Malvasia Salina Igt 2022

54 €

"Verticale" by Caravaglio is a white wine made from Malvasia grapes grown on the volcanic island of Stromboli. The wine is distinguished by its dark caramel color, bright and shiny. The nose has powerful hints of Mediterranean scrub, walnut and molasses, while the palate is initially grumpy and pungent, then explodes into notes of dried apricot, raisins and candied ginger. Fermentation and aging take place in oak barrels for about a year, giving the wine intense aromas of stone fruit, citrus and flowers. "Verticale" is elegant, complex, full-bodied and fresh, ideal with vegetarian dishes, fish, shellfish, crustaceans and white meats. Viticulture in Stromboli, once renowned, suffered a long crisis until its recent rebirth thanks to the efforts of Nino Caravaglio and other winemakers. Their project, Vignedimare, led to the planting of new vines in 2016, and after four years of care and labor, they have reaped their first benefits, producing 300 liters of wine. This wine represents not only the revival of an ancient tradition, but also an enhancement of the island's unique terroir.
