Production and refinement

Vermentino in purity, trained with a spurred cordon system, grown in a half-hectare vineyard oriented North/South—the finest of the estate—rooted in medium-textured soil composed of silt and sand. Manual harvest with grape selection directly in the vineyard.

The grapes are immediately brought to the winery, where fermentation begins at a controlled temperature in stainless steel with selected yeasts. The wine is then aged for several months in steel.

Mola

L'Azienda Agricola Mola si trova nella piana e sulle colline di Mola, località dell'Isola d'Elba situata tra i comuni di Porto Azzurro e Capoliveri, a breve distanza dal mare. Dal 1956 è di proprietà della famiglia Pavoletti, che nel 1994 ha avviato un ambizioso progetto di rinnovamento dei vigneti con l'obiettivo di produrre vini di qualità basati sui vitigni autoctoni dell'Isola d'Elba. La produzione comprende vini bianchi, rossi e passiti, tutti appartenenti alla denominazione DOC Elba.

La varietà dei terroir e dei microclimi presenti nei 30 ettari di proprietà dell'azienda ha permesso l’impiego di numerosi vitigni autoctoni nei 10 ettari di vigneto, suddivisi in quattro diverse zone tra pianura e collina. Tra i rossi spiccano il Sangiovese, l’Aleatico e il Cabernet, mentre tra i bianchi troviamo il Procanico, la Malvasia, il Vermentino e l’Ansonica. L’adozione di moderne tecniche di vinificazione, insieme a un uso equilibrato di contenitori in legno usati, consente di ottenere vini caratterizzati da una gamma di sapori e aromi complessi. I vini bianchi e rossi dell’azienda si distinguono per freschezza e sapidità, qualità che derivano dai terreni ricchi e dalla vicinanza al mare.

Mola

Particolare attenzione è riservata ai vini passiti, con un focus speciale sull’Aleatico, vitigno iconico dell’Isola d’Elba. Gli impianti di Aleatico provengono esclusivamente dalla selezione effettuata dall'azienda negli ultimi 35 anni, garantendo una qualità unica.

Per l’appassimento, l’azienda ha sviluppato strutture dedicate che permettono un processo graduale, preservando la sanità e l’integrità aromatica delle uve. Il risultato è un vino passito di straordinario pregio, espressione autentica del territorio e della lunga tradizione vitivinicola dell’Elba.

Tuscany

Tuscany is one of the most important Italian regions for wine, famous worldwide for its renowned labels. Here, wine truly has been part of history and culture for centuries, as far back as the 14th century with the establishment of the "Lega dei Vinattieri" (Wine Merchants Guild).
The Tuscan landscape also tells the story of the territory's strong winemaking vocation: from the hills of Chianti and the Etruscan Coast to the panoramas of Val d’Orcia and Val di Chiana, kilometers of splendid vineyards stretch out before our eyes, producing excellent wines.

Tuscany is one of Italy's most suitable regions for the production of quality wines and has conquered world markets since the 1980s. Bathed by the Ligurian Sea and the Tyrrhenian Sea, it has predominantly hilly terrain with a temperate climate, mild winters, and cool summers.
The various types of grapevines cultivated in Tuscany are greatly influenced by the soil on which they grow, ranging from sandy soils in the west to tuffaceous soils, and even clayey and calcareous soils.
A special mention goes to "galestro," a type of local soil that also gives its name to a wine from the Chianti area.

Island of Elba

The Island of Elba is nestled in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the coast of Tuscany: renowned for its pristine beaches and lush nature, it also hosts a growing wine scene. The vineyards of the Island of Elba stretch across the slopes of the hills and the terraces overlooking the sea.

The Mediterranean climate, combined with maritime influence, creates a favorable environment for vine cultivation. Among the local grape varieties, Aleatico and Ansonica stand out, while among the most common varieties, we find Vermentino and Sangiovese.

Wines produced on the Island of Elba are distinguished by their freshness, minerality, and ability to reflect the typical characteristics of the territory, with aromas and flavors reminiscent of the sea.

Wine production often takes place in family-run wineries.

The main denominations of the Island of Elba include "Elba DOC" and "Ansonica Costa dell'Argentario DOC".
In the enchanting scenery of the Island of Elba, amidst pristine beaches and lush nature, the growing wine scene is reflected on the hillsides and terraces overlooking the sea.
