Wine and Gastronomy

the Wine Trail of the Amalfi Coast The Road twists amidst terraces that hold hanging vineyards on precipices over the sea, suddenly opening with marvellous views, between the valleys and gorges where the splendid architecture of the coast clambers upwards. The traditional vines are cultivated here, and are renamed by the locals, like Falanghina, become Bianca Zita (white girl); Biancolella, become Bianca Tenera (tender white) and Lo Sciascinoso, Olivella. The wines produced are all Costa d’Amalfi and Ravello Doc wines.
Specialities: Anchovie straining (Cetara), Amalfi lemons, Minori pasta, Cetara Red Tuna, Amalfi Coast Doc wines

The most cited of the whites are the Biancolella and the Forastera, of the reds the Pere ‘e palummo (“pigeon foot”, with its grape-stalk red colour). Apart from the great seafood to be enjoyed in any of the island’s many restaurants, Ischia is also famed for itstraditional “land” cuisine, the most famous dish being rabbit, and for the flavourful cherry tomatos.

A journey amidst the flavours of the Sorrentine Peninsula cannot but begin with the famous biscuits  of Castellamare di Stabia. In nearby Gragnano the exquisite pasta must be tried, made by the famous artisan pasta-shops that still use the old machines. Vico Equense is famous for its “pizza by the meter”, a long rectangular pizza intended to be sold by length, invented in the 1950’s. The walnuts and oil of the Sorrentine Peninsula are also to be tasted and have been awarded the Dop marking. Do not miss the Wine trails and the typical products of the Sorrentine Peninsula: a journey through open-tothe-public wine cellars, vineyards, typical restaurants and artisan shops. The area is famous for the production of great traditional wines like Gragnano and Lettere. The lemons of the Peninsula are famous for having created Limoncello liqueur. The best, hand-made, has a simple recipe: lemon rinds, alcohol, water and sugar. Sorrento is, however, a centre of exquisite gastronomic delights. A stroll about town is not complete without a lemon sorbet, a ‘hot ice cream’  (the local semifreddo) or its most famous dessert, the Lemon Delight.
