The roots of this Biancolella are sunk in the heroic viticulture of Ischia

Biancolella is the iconic white grape of the island of Ischia, cultivated for centuries on volcanic terraces overlooking the sea. Its history is intertwined with that of ancient Pithecusae, one of the first Greek colonies in the West, where vine cultivation first arrived in the 8th century BC. Since then, Biancolella has found this volcanic terroir and marine climate to be the ideal conditions for expressing its distinctive flavor and freshness. Growing it in a location without vehicular access, amidst the woods and in total isolation, is an act of heroic viticulture, love, and endurance. In its freshest and most minimally processed version, Biancolella reveals all its immediacy and connection to the sea. Tenuta del Cannavale preserves its legacy with natural winemaking.
 
 
 

Choosing this Biancolella means taking care of yourself

The absence of filtration and invasive procedures preserves the integrity of the product and its original characteristics. Consumed in moderation, white wine provides polyphenols with antioxidant properties. Its low alcohol content (11% vol.) and easy drinkability make it a light and balanced wine. Cultivation on volcanic soil and in a pristine environment guarantees a lively and authentic product.
