Dall’Isola

Dall’Isola (From the Island) vineyards are located on the island of Capri off the coast of Naples. This is not the first place you think of for winemaking, but Joaquin started producing wines from the vineyards on Capri in 2009. On the island, Joaquin is restoring very old (some pre-philloxera) and forgotten vines. The vineyards consist of a mix of different grape varieties, because in the past, regardless of climate, people wanted to make sure that wine could be produced. Indeed, in some vintages, certain grapes stand out better than others. Some of these grapes are native grape varieties from Capri; which, of course, is very special.

Once a day a pound sails to the island, for harvest Joaquin leases this entire pound to have the ability to bring the grapes to their winery. The grapes are first harvested by hand and then brought to the winery. Vinification takes place in steel with light fermentation maceration and further aging in bottle.

Joaquin’s Dall’Isola has a luminous straw yellow color with golden hints. On the nose, the wine has an intense bouquet of flowers and white flesh with notes of peach, apricot and a predominant mineral and citrusy hint.

On the palate, it is aromatic where the aromas of the nose are reflected on the palate. The wine has lively acidity that has a persistent and enveloping length to taste with a well-defined body and structure.

Only 605 bottles were produced for the 2023 vintage.
