Notes From The Winemaker:

Founded in 1888, Casa d'Ambra cultivates native varietals Biancolella, Forestera and Per'e Palummo that are only found on the volcanic island of Ischia, off the coast of Naples.

Vineyards are carved into volcanic rock, which sport a unusual sea-green color, a result of mineral deposits from the sea. You can taste this sea salt, mineral influence in the wines.

It is a rule that where you find volcanoes in Italy, you will too find Aglianico. This full-bodied, powerfully flavored and complex grape prefers the rich volcanic soils of Campania and Basilicata. Intense, persistent yet perfectly balanced; flavors of blackberries, cherries and the unmistakable note of ash show in this juicy wine. An incredible value for such exacting quality.
