Pale straw color with golden reflections. Aromas of white flowers, white peaches, and mineral notes from the volcanic soils. Refreshing acidity with vibrant lemon, crisp green apple, ripe pear, and honey. Lively, persistent finish with citrus zest.
100% Falanghina from Roccamonfina in the Upper Caserta area of Campania. The surroundings are dominated by the inactive Roccamonfina volcano, whose activity has contributed to the composition of the land.
Fermented with wild yeast, briefly macerated in oak barrels, then aged in stainless steel.
"We are in Teano, in Alto Casertano, at the foot of the extinct volcano of Roccamonfina. Diana Iannacone, agronomist and Mario Basco now run the farm following the dictates of biodynamic agriculture. The vineyard occupies 9 hectares, divided into several plots located in Cacciagalli and Aorivola localities.
"An authentic interpretation of the typical vines of the area through the peculiarities that the territory offers, traced unequivocally by the activity of the extinct volcano of Roccamonfina: altitudes from 200 to 300 meters above sea level, with rows all facing east, on soils of volcanic nature, loose, sandy-calcareous and with good organic substance.
"Only indigenous grape varieties Aglianico, Piediorosso, Pallagrello Nero, Falanghina, and Fiano are grown. Almost all wines are aged in amphora, with more or less long maceration on skins and strictly spontaneous fermentations, no clarification and filtrations, or any additives."
