Capofaro Malvasia di Salina has born from the love of Tasca d’Almerita family for sea
and vines. Shadow withering allow a correct sugar concentration and keep the aromatic
component of the grapes as well as their freshness. Malvasia Capofaro is an elegant wine,
never mawkish, perfect expression of the sea and the soil it takes its origins from.
