Ischia Forastera
100% Forastera, this wine has a luminous straw yellow color with elegant greenish reflections. The nose is harmonious, fruity, mineral, with typical notes of Mediterranean citrus fruits. Velvety, fresh, dry, well-structured, and moderately crisp at the palate.
It matches well with light appetizers, shellfishes, raw seafood, first courses based on fish or seafood. We suggest this wine to be matched with Spaghetti alle vongole.

50% Biancolella and 50% Fiano. A wine of great substance, with a refined and elegant bouquet of small pastry and acacia flowers, mixed with vibrant and fresh notes of fruits and white flowers. On the palate it is delicate and full, yet agile and sapid at the same time. A wine with a great personality which reminds the typical characters of its original varietals: the light almond of Biancolella and the fresh taste of Fiano. Excellent wine for the entire meal, as an aperitif or paired with first dishes of fish and seafood, also ideal with shellfish and baked fish.
