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.
