Wines from Volcanic Soils

The volcanic wines are wines that are obtained from grapes that grow in particular areas where the soil is of volcanic origin and, consequently, by fertile nature. In these lands rich in minerals such as potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, tuff and lava rocks, the vine benefits greatly, giving the wines unique characteristics, in terms of personality, complexity, finesse and longevity. The most known areas for the production of volcanic wines are: the Soave, located in the eastern part of the Veronese, where we find vines such as the Garganega and the Trebbiano di Soave. The area of ​​the Vicenza area called Lessini Durello, where the homonymous vine is grown. Another area of ​​the Vicenza area is Gambellara with the Garganega vine. Going further to the east we find the Euganean Hills with its international grapes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay, but also the yellow Moscato, with which they produce dry wines, but above all passito or sweet sparkling wines. On the border between Umbria and Lazio we find Orvieto. Here viticulture has been practiced since the time of the Etruscans, who dug caves in the tuff to make wine-making cellars, the grapes used are mainly Grechetto and Procanico. In this area we find other denominations such as Pitigliano, Aleatico di Gradoli and EST !, EST !!, EST !!! of Montefalcone. In Campania around the Neapolitan area we find the Campi Flegrei, Ischia and Vesuvio with the Falanghina, Coda di Volpe, Biancolella and Piedirosso vines. Sicily, the most famous volcanic areas are those of Etna, with the vineyards Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Capuccio, and Pantelleria and the Aeolian Islands with Zibibbo and Malvasia. Wines that are red as the magna, black as the basalt, and white as the tufa.
