INTRODUCTION
Falanghina is an ancient Italian white-wine grape, reportedly of Greek origin. It is also said that Falanghina is the grape variety behind Falernian, the most famous wine of Roman antiquity and the inspiration for Falerno del Massico. Falanghina can have a slight pine scent, but is better known for its apricot and pinapple hints. On the palate it typically shows mineral and fresh taste with spicy notes. ”Immediacy” is exactly its strong suit. Perfect for aperitif but also for lunch or dinner fish or white meat based. There are at least two sub-varieties Falanghina Flegrea and Falanghina Beneventana with slightly differentiating organoleptic properties. We produce Falanghina wine with the Beneventana variety.
TASTING NOTES
Straw yellow with gold reflections, aromas are particularly fruity with hints of apricot and pineapple. The palate is dry, warm, soft with good freshness and a great persistence.
