The wine region of Salina
IGT covering the volcanic Aeolian archipelago north-east of Sicily (Salina island at its heart). Malvasia delle Lipari is the signature indigenous white — historically as an enchanting passito (≥18°) with intense notes of apricot, honey, candied citrus and dried fruit, now also in a dry and mineral version with citrus, herbs and a saline-volcanic touch. Corinto Nero, Catarratto, Inzolia and Nerello Cappuccio as complementary varieties.
The wine region of Sicily
Major qualitative renewal. Sunny, expressive reds: fleshy, spicy Nero d'Avola (black cherry, blackberry, liquorice), fine, mineral Nerello Mascalese on Etna (recalls Pinot Noir), light, crisp Frappato in Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG. Lively, saline whites: Catarratto, fat, iodised Grillo, taut Carricante, floral Inzolia. Amber, walnutty fortified Marsala.
The word of the wine: Young
A very relative term that can designate a wine of the year that is already at its optimum, as well as a wine that has passed its first year but has not yet developed all its qualities.
