Falanghina del Sannio
This Falanghina is sourced from 3 hectares of 20-30 year old vines, grown in clay and calcareous soil with south-east exposure. The grapes are hand-harvested in late September, with fermentation for 18-20 days and 2 months of vinification under steel. The wine is released after 2 months in bottle.
A fresh array of exotic fruit erupts from the glass, showing ripe banana, candied pear and pineapple, with hints of baking spice on the bright, lifted finish.
