Caravaglio - Malvasia Delle Lipari Passito 2021 Ml. 375
Winery Caravaglio
Characteristic
The Malvasia straw wine represents the history of the Aeolian Islands. It was a royal wine in the major courts of Europe until the early 19th century. Phylloxera, emigration and world wars nearly made it disappear.
The grapes are harvested ripe, by hand, and spread on the traditional “cannizzi” (mats) to dry out in the Mediterranean September sun for 15- 20 days. After the vinification, with no added yeasts, the Malvasia ages partly in steel tanks and partly in oak barrels for 6 months. Another 6 months are necessary in the bottle.
