Lazio Biancolella IGT 2021 Antiche Cantine Migliaccio Set 6 bouteilles

Lazio Biancolella IGT is a straw-yellow white wine produced only from hand-picked Biancolella grapes and vinified by Antiche Cellars Migliaccio on the island of Ponza from the generosity of old vines grown naturally according to ancient traditions. Intense aromas of citrus and ripe fruit are enhanced by the warm and intense Mediterranean flavors, leaving a mineral, savory taste in the mouth with a long and persistent citrus finish.

Ponza together with Palmarola, Gavi and Zannone form the archipelago of the Ponziane Islands, in the Tyrrhenian Sea. Punta Fieno is an impervious, uncontaminated location on the island of Ponza that can only be reached via an old mule track.

In 1734, Charles of Bourbon granted Punta It gave Pietro Migliaccio of Ischia the task of planting the famous Ischia vines of biancolella, forastera, guarnaccia, aglianico and piedirosso. 

Unfortunately, the access difficulties led over time to the abandonment of the cultivation of the vines and their slow decline. In 2020, a descendant of the Migiaccio family, Emanuele Vittorio, decided to recover the old vineyards and bring them back to their former glory.

Recovering the Vineyards also follows, very importantly, a recovery of the ancient traditions in the cultivation of the vines done manually, in a natural way respecting the environment and the territory: the result is the production of warm and intense wines, mineral, with a Mediterranean flavor . 

Lazio Biancolella IGT (Protected Geographical Indication) of the Ancient Cantine < strong>Migliaccio is a straw yellow white wine produced with only Biancolella grapes on sandy soils of volcanic origin and aged in steel.
