The island of Vulcano, to which Hephaestus, god of fire, bestowed

both fertility and a unique microclimate. Vigna di Paola is located in

the Gelso area in the south of the island. It is a wine that is

characterized by a flavor profile which plays on the saline and

sulfur notes native to this island, but also of flower and fruit typical

of this variety. On the palate it is an explosion of flavor that persists

until the final sip, a long-lasting taste.

A vineyard overlooking the sea with southern exposure, divided into

two zones “above” and “below” the road. The Malvasia delle Lipari

vines planted here in 2006 are characterized by low productivity and

therefore a good fruit concentration.
