Description

Nero Ossidiana IGT

Falling under the spell of this wine is as easy as succumbing to the beauty of the sunset at the production site. Lipari is a magnificent island in Sicily, hosting an extraordinary terroir and indigenous grape varieties of high potential. The Corinto Nero is one of them, a grape with a Mediterranean character on the nose and a Burgundian quality on the palate. A pronounced and striking contrast with a generous bouquet and a delicate, fine mouthfeel.

Tenuta di Castellaro

Tenuta di Castellaro was one of the first wines I tasted in my career. These wines, both generous and powerful without being rich or cloying, intrigued me from the very first sip. Coming from the island of Lipari, in the Aeolian archipelago, north of Sicily, the vineyards rest on magnificent volcanic soils that impart the wines with their characteristic freshness and minerality.

Castellaro’s wines are made from indigenous grape varieties of the area, such as Malvasia di Lipari for the whites or Corinto Nero for the reds. They are bottles brimming with Mediterranean fruits and aromas, always offering a perfect balance between the generosity of Sicily’s sunlight and the freshness of Lipari’s volcanic coastline.
