Bianco Pomice 2021 - PGI white wine Terre Siciliane produced on the island of Lipari.

In Lipari, in the splendid archipelago of the Aeolian Islands, on a plain at 350 meters above sea level supported by ancient kaolin quarries, stands an excellent wine and landscape project.

In a particular territory, of volcanic origin, with a very varied and diversified soil composition, but rich in minerals, where alternating areas with a prevalence of white pumice stone, pink kaolin, black obsidian, which characterize the various volcanic territories of the landscape of 'island. The estate's vineyards are grown on these different soils and manage to express the peculiarities of each individual terroir with great fidelity. Entirely raised on Etna saplings and organically, they give life to a variety of natural blends with great organoleptic and qualitative potential.

"The scents, the light colors, its thousand reflections: all this links it to the Aeolian Islands. Noble and fertile lands, impervious, difficult and lush at the same time. So we want to repay Lipari for what Lipari has given us."

With a bright yellow color and a thousand shades, it is an intense and balanced wine that concentrates and gives Mediterranean sensations. On the nose there are characteristic floral aromas, fruity notes and mineral hints, giving a harmony that ranges from aromatic notes to fresh acidity.

Produced from the unusual combination of the native Malvasia delle Lipari vine - vinified dry - with the Etna Carricante, which gives elegance and flavor to the sugary power of Malvasia.

The grapes are selected and harvested by hand, the yeasts used are indigenous ones and the clarification occurs naturally, decanting the wine several times before bottling.
