Tips

The millstones of the Falanga wood are very old, one in particular is truly in an excellent state of conservation. It is made up of two rectangular tanks, of different sizes: the grapes were placed in the larger one, this tank was connected through a hole to the smaller one where the must flowed.

Scholars believe that this millstone is also one of the oldest on the island of Ischia, since the records of the year 1000 mention the existence in Ischia in the farmhouse "qui nominatur ad bicum" of a palmentum and a subscetorium, the vat for the must, which was in the middle of the vineyards, it is clear that this description adheres like a glove to the physiognomy of the Falanga.
