Golden lemon color with aromas of tropical and stone fruits with toasty nutty notes. On the palate flavors of melon, apple and pear with sweet citrus and raisin notes. Medium+ length, balanced lively acidity, ending with sweet fruit and nutty mineral character.

Sweet smoke, mint and freshly sliced yellow apple make for a pretty bouquet as the 2021 Falanghina slowly blossoms in the glass. Its silky textures soothe the palate, as ripe orchard fruits and spice cascade throughout. This finishes with a grippy tension. Saline minerals and citrus rind pucker the cheeks. There’s a lot of character and layers packed into the crisp Falanghina. Perhaps some cellaring will reveal further depths. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2023)

Shy on the nose —- almond skin, lime and peach. Crushed stones on the palate leading up to a bitter finish. Moderate plus acidity and body.
