Ancestrale - Vino I Bianco Naturale, Malvasia, Sicilia, Salina IGP

Winemakers Antonino Caravaglio and Guiseppe Mascoli put 100% Malvasia into amphora on skins for up to three months in order to create this gorgeous orange wine. On the nose you'll find flavours of fresh figs, apricot and smoke from the volcanic soils of the Aeolian Islands in which the Malvasia delle Lipari grows. Organic viticulture comes as standard for Azienda Agricola Ancestrale as does spontaneous fermentation, and no fining or filtration (which makes this a vegan wine).

WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE Fresh figs, apricot and Mediterranean herbs leap from the glass of this vibrant orange wine. A touch of smoke from the volcanic soils is also present.
STRUCTURE This wine has seen up to 3 months amphorae which gives it a gorgeous orange hue, along with tannins that are present, but not cloying. The floral / fruity flavours found on the nose follow through to the palate. There’s also a refreshing salinity and minerality, giving a fantastically long finish.
PAIRING Sicily is famous for its North African cuisine so grab some couscous, spiced lamb and pomegranate to go with this delightful wine.
