We produce exclusively autochthonous wines, typical not only of the Aeolian archipelago but also of the Sicilian area, for this we have twenty-year olds agreements with selected Sicilian producers (surfaces covering more than 35 hectares of vineyards in Marsala (TP) for the whites: Grillo, Insolia, Cataratto and Zibibbo, and over 55 between Mazara (TP) and Riesi (CL) for the reds: Nero D’Avola, Nerello Cappuccio, Nerello Mascalese); in order to ensure our company a finest production that is strongly tied closely to the areas.
The Colosi wines produced on the island of Salina are two Igp Salina whites, one Igp Salina red and two varieties of Malvasia delle Lipari Dop, one natural and a passito. In accordance with the age-old oenology tradition of the Aeolian islands, from the prized Colosi Malvasia and Corinto Nero varieties of grape comes the most representative wine of the area, since ancient times called “nectar of the gods”: the sweet Malvasia, a dessert wine par excellence.
Colosi produces two varieties: Malvasia Passito di Salina Dop and Malvasia delle Lipari Naturale di Salina Dop, both highly fragrant wines with a warm and velvety taste. Soft but with grace, with slight tannicity, excellent texture and good balance.
