Upon arriving at the winery, you'll encounter the historic Giardino Mediterraneo winery: a space that preserves the deepest soul of the island's winemaking tradition, the cradle of the company.
It's a rare example of lapilli construction, where the ancient palmenti, volcanic stone vats once used for grape processing, are preserved intact.
Here, time seems to have stood still.
The stone, the barrels, the intimate spaces, and the ancient palmenti tell a story of work, wine, and memory, in a place where every detail retains the original charm of Ischia's rural culture.
The palmenti are among the winery's most precious elements.
They were the ancient spaces used for pressing grapes and the first stages of winemaking, a tangible testimony to a deep connection with the land and its rhythms.
Their presence makes this space unique, offering guests an atmosphere rich in history and identity.
While maintaining its authenticity intact, the winery today enjoys a new dimension of hospitality.
It's an intimate, warm, and characterful space, perfect for aperitifs, tastings, glasses of wine, after-dinner drinks, and small private events.
Here, history and conviviality meet, offering a charming and immersive experience, surrounded by barrels, ancient stone, and the memory of wine.
The cellar seats approximately 50 and is open during the winter, approximately December to March.
During the season, it hosts themed evenings dedicated to food, wine, and cocktails, featuring the ancient wood-fired kitchen, which evokes simple, authentic, and profoundly rural cuisine.
