Gran Passione
Beneventano Falanghina
Great surprise as I have never had this wine before. Quite a bit darker color than most Gavis that I have had. Very complex especially as it opened up. From citrus to stonefruit to floral notes and even a mineral dry finish. Held up nice to grilled shrimp and calamari. I like

Jun 12th, 2015I really like this wine! Nectarine and gooseberry on the nose. Lemon curd and a little flinty on the finish. Enjoyed with a smoked ham and sweet potatoes!

Apr 22nd, 2018Delicious! Honey, apple, apricot, plum, and wildflower aromas. Lightly acidic, a bit tannic. Well-balanced. The wine was overwhelmed by dinner (saltimbocca), and was far better on its own. Would definitely buy again.

Mar 22nd, 2018Tasted in 2014: Extremely fragrant. Tropical fruit, stone fruit, and orange blossoms. Finished with a clean, chalky minerality.

Feb 21st, 2018To start with, I would wear this as perfume it smells so good! Big taste. I was at a wine tasting when I had it; all of the other wines were good... but I was ruined for other wine after.
