Malvasia delle Lipari Tenuta di Castellaro 2017 - 37.5cl

Malvasia delle Lipari Tenuta di Castellaro originates in the splendid territory of Lipari, a small island in the Aeolian archipelago.

The vines, grown using the alberello system, are planted on volcanic soil rich in sand, pumice, obsidian and numerous mineral substances. The warm, breezy Mediterranean climate is mitigated by sea breezes, which allow the grapes to ripen perfectly. 

After harvesting, the best grapes are dried in the sun for a couple of weeks before pressing and slow fermentation with indigenous yeasts in oak barrels, which is completed after a few months. The wine matures for about a year in barrels and then refines for a further 12 months in bottles before release.
