Malvasia Donna allo Specchio – Soffio sulle Isole – 2025

The wine Malvasia Donna allo Specchio by Soffio sulle Isole

The Malvasia Donna allo specchio (woman at the mirror) of the Soffio sulle Isole winery is produced with 100% Malvasia grapes grown on the island of Vulcano, one of the seven islands that form the Aeolian archipelago in Sicily. Although the island is of volcanic origin, the vineyards are located in a very fertile territory in the “Piano” area, a real plain, 420 meters above sea level.

The Winemaking

After the manual harvest which takes place in the first half of September, only the selected grapes are brought to the cellar for winemaking. The bunches are first de-stemmed and then gently pressed. The must obtained ferments in steel at a controlled temperature. After bottling, the wine rests in the cellar for at least three months before being placed on the market.
