This volcanic Italian island was made for wine

By: Samantha Leal

Pantelleria, a volcanic island between Sicily and Tunisia, is quite small, but it produces great wine. Geographically closer to Tunisia, it has a rich history that has seen the passage of different cultures that made their way from across the sea.

“History has crossed this small rock sitting right in between two continents [of Europe and Africa],” says Dalila Calabrese, a Fora travel advisor and Italian living in Naples. Today, she notes, its economy is largely supported by caper plantations and wineries on the island.
