{"product_id":"cenatiempo-ischia-forastera-2024","title":"Cenatiempo, Ischia Forastera, 2024","description":"A lean, salty white from a grape that grows essentially nowhere but Ischia — Forastera, the island's high-acid, low-alcohol native, which Pasquale Cenatiempo turns into something that tastes far more like a mountain wine than a wine made within sight of Naples. His importer reaches for Blanc de Morgex as the comparison, and that's the right neighborhood: stony, racy, built on nerve rather than weight. The family has been at this since 1945, when Pasquale's father Francesco founded the winery, and Pasquale farms fourteen tiny terraces of volcanic soil by hand — viticoltura eroica, heroic viticulture, because none of it can be mechanized and almost none of it makes economic sense. Organic farming, biodynamic principles on the larger parcels, indigenous yeasts, steel and cement, no oak anywhere. Ischia has been making wine for nearly three thousand years, since it was one of the first Greek colonies in the western Mediterranean, and it's still one of Italy's most overlooked white wine sources — which is exactly why bottles like this overdeliver.","brand":"Polaner [POL]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46481679679545,"sku":"NYC-W-POL-`POL`-091026-30","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Cenatiempo-Ischia-Forastera-2024-White-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1789569601","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/cenatiempo-ischia-forastera-2024","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
