The Azienda Agricola Caravaglio was founded in 1989. Focusing on quality linked to the territory immediately meant an important choice: to produce according to the dictates of organic farming. Today the winery manages about 20 hectares vineyards divided into about 30 plots between the islands of Salina and Lipari. The main grape varieties are Malvasia, Corinto and Nerello Mascalese.
Sea, sun and volcano - Abissale was born in the waves, on the island of Salina. It expresses a viticulture that here blends the sea and the volcano in a unique wine. It is made from 90% Malvasia di Lipari grapes and 10% other indigenous vines grown in total respect for nature in twenty small plots located in suitable areas on sandy and volcanic soils on the island. The winemaking incorporated direct pressing of the grapes, no maceration, no clarification and fermentation in stainless steel tanks exclusively on indigenous yeasts at a controlled temperature and finally ageing in large wood barrels.
