“The Tenuta di Castellaro 2020 Bianco Pomice is a blend of 60% Malvasia delle Lipari and 40% Carricante, and only the Carricante sees some brief time in barrique. The Malvasia ages on the fine lees in stainless steel. This estate has a vineyard on the island of Lipari. With 12,000 bottles released, Pomice is extremely expressive and bright, flaunting all those deeply volcanic tones of mineral, ash and crushed pumice stone after which this bottle is named. Crisp white flowers add a fragrant touch to the bouquet, but you’ll also get hints of caper and wild anise. ” 92/100pts Wine Advocate
“It has been so exciting to witness the steady progress of Tenuta di Castellaro over recent years. Last year, I named this organically farmed winery on my list of top discoveries from Italy. The estate farms 20 hectares of alberello vines on the island of Lipari. The vines are perched at 350 meters in elevation on the northeast side of the island, with views of the sea and the islands of Alicudi, Filicudi and Salina in the distance. They also farm a small vineyard on the southeast side of the island on a panoramic terrace located on a steep sea bluff. This site is planted to Malvasia delle Lipari and Corinto Nero. You can see the island of Vulcano on the horizon, and organized tours of the vineyard offer an unforgettable sunset wine tasting.” Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate
