UNLIKE LIMESTONE CAPRI, ISCHIA IS VOLCANIC. Hot springs emerge from the rock at seemingly random intervals; at Sorgeto Bay the sand reaches 100°C. The mountain at the island’s centre, Monte Epomeo, rises to 788 metres and is laced with ancient hiking trails through volcanic tufa, lichen-covered rock and terraced vineyards. The wine those vineyards produce – above all the Biancolella, a crisp, mineral white found nowhere else in quite the same form.
