The Artisan of Malvasia Passito Wine: Mauro Pollastri – Punta Aria, Vulcano, Aeolien Islands, Italy

By Artborghi @artborghi

On the southern, most remote part of Vulcano island, Mauro Pollastri still produces the authentic, traditional Lipari wine:  the Malvasia Passito. Wine grapes are not immediately processed after collection, but left ripening in the shades thus to reach a particular alcoholic grade and sweetness.
