Salina is the greenest island of the Aeolian archipelago in the south Tyrrhenian Sea. Its ancient name is "Didyme" meaning "twins", that references its two twin volcanoes, which seen from a far recalls a sensual female breast. The Nature Reserve has two peaks: Monte dei Porri is 860 m and Monte Fossa delle Felci is 962 m, the highest mountain of the seven Aeolean islands. Salina is a green oasis with its forest of chestnut trees and its other species of mediterranean flora.
Here the vineyards have an average slope that varies between 20 and 35% and the soil is of volcanic origin, rich in pumice stone, with a subsoil rich in organic substances and mineral elements.
