The history of Ischia is written in the vine.
For over two thousand years, on these volcanic lands, man has cultivated vines following ancient rhythms of sun, wind, and patience.
Our vineyards grow on tuff and lapilli soils, overlooking the Gulf of Naples, where the unique microclimate gives the grapes an elegant minerality and natural freshness.
Biancolella, the island's iconic variety, produces bright, savory, and fragrant wines, with notes reminiscent of white flowers and Mediterranean scrub.
Piedirosso, on the other hand, expresses the most authentic and rustic side of the land: a delicate, fresh red with hints of red fruits and a lightness that makes it profoundly Mediterranean.
Supporting these vineyards are ancient stone structures, dry-stone walls, called parracine in the local dialect.
Built stone by stone without the use of binders, they delineate the island's terraces and make even the steepest slopes cultivable.
The parracine are more than just an architectural feature: they retain the sun's heat, protect the soil from erosion, and maintain the necessary moisture for the vines, creating a unique natural balance.
Cultivation is still carried out according to traditional practices, often entirely manual, where every gesture is passed down through time and each harvest becomes a ritual.
This is where our wine is born.
And this is where the story of our land is born.
