The Caravaglio Estate is a hidden gem in the lush Aeolian Islands, specifically on the island of Salina, Italy. Steeped in tradition and keepers of the wine heritage for centuries, the estate is a wonderful example of man and nature's perfect interaction to produce wines of the highest quality. Established in 1500, this family-run vineyard covers an impressive total of 34 hectares of land, made up of plots situated between the sea and the mountains. The volcanic soils, combined with the warm Mediterranean climate, come together to create an ideal environment for the vines. It is in this landscape that the organic wines of the Caravaglio Estate are produced, respecting the land and environment in a constant pursuit of excellence. The estate is passionately managed by Antonio Caravaglio, who represents the third generation of the estate's winemakers. He works tirelessly to respect the richness and diversity of the land, the vine and the wine, cultivating his vineyards with absolute respect for nature. The estate's commitment to sustainability and organic practice is reflected in each bottle of wine produced. The wines of the Caravaglio Estate are recognized for their purity and testimony of Salina’s unique terroir. Each bottle captures the taste of the island's volcanic soils, the sea salt from the wind, and the brilliant Mediterranean sun. The varieties of wines produced range from the sweet and aromatic Malvasia di Lipari, to the rich and full-bodied Nero d'Avola. But what truly makes this estate unique is its commitment to producing wines that express the true "taste" of Salina.

Discover the grape variety: Nerello mascalese

A very old grape variety grown in Italy, more precisely in the north of Sicily on the slopes of Mount Etna and in Sardinia. Its origin would be Greek because it was reported in Greece in the 7th century B.C. It is the result of a natural intraspecific crossing between sangiovese or nielluccio and mantonico bianco. It should not be confused with nerello capuccio and pignatello nero. It should be noted that Nerello mascalese seems to be a grape variety adapted to altitude, as is the case in Sicily where it is planted at a rate of 6,000 and 9,000 vines per hectare. It is practically unknown in other wine-producing countries, which is certainly due to its late ripening.
