THE WINE
The Lazio IGT Biancolella 2021 from Antiche Cantine Migliaccio is a heroic wine made from native Biancolella grapes grown exclusively on the island of Ponza. The tuff and sandy soil gives it a unique character, enhanced by careful vinification with aging in steel and a limited production of only 1500 bottles. On the nose, it reveals citrus and ripe fruit aromas with floral notes and mineral nuances. On the palate, it is fresh, savory, and elegant, with surprising finesse and delicacy. Perfect with raw seafood, shellfish, grilled fish, and fresh cheeses.
THE COMPANY
The Antiche Cantine Migliaccio have been a staple of viticulture on the island of Ponza since 1734, when the Neapolitan king Charles of Bourbon entrusted Pietro Migliaccio with the task of planting the vines of biancolella, forastera, guarnaccia, aglianico and piedirosso, in one of the most unreachable and uncontaminated plots of the island: Punta Fieno. It is precisely this inaccessibility, which can only be reached by swimming or after 40 minutes of impervious walk, that has over time discouraged local winemakers and only in 2000 did the vineyards of Punta Fieno return to their former glory thanks to the intervention of Emanuele Vittorio, descendant of the Migliaccio. The company uses modern techniques in the cellar with regard to crushing and refining, while for all the rest they have chosen to remain tied to the traditions that provide for a natural approach, without chemical additives, and manual processing. The heroic efforts of Emanuele, and the climatic conditions, create the conditions for the production of unique, warm, mineral, and intense wines, with a strongly Mediterranean spirit.
EXTREME WINES
Extreme Wines are heroic wines, born from the toil, sweat, and industriousness of man; they are produced in often unknown, geographically rugged, sometimes impossible areas and cultivated in tiny patches of land wrested from the mountain, the rocks, the sea.
From Trentino-Alto Adige to Sardinia, from Valle d'Aosta to the island of Pantelleria, from Valtellina to the Amalfi Coast, from the Cinque Terre to the slopes of Etna, ancient Enotria boasts a myriad of grape varieties that have survived wars, plagues, and the scourge of phylloxera.
Grape varieties that, thanks to the tenacity and passion of some small great winemakers, have been rescued from oblivion and still today are able to offer Bacchus enthusiasts extraordinary wines.
