Super duper crushable. This wine is the very definition of a summer wine. 100% Falanghina. The color of a sunset, this pours a slightly hazy copper salmon. On the nose it’s white flowers and stone fruit. On the palate, it’s ripened apricots, peach skin, rhubarb and bitters. Finish is lasting. Balanced. Works with simple meals. I truly hope Valentina has nothing to do with her Father’s (allegedly) shitty business practices. A truly compelling quaffer.

Average modern, natural wine. Nothing offensive, nothing memorable. Refreshing and gulpable on a hot summer night.

Aug 14th, 2020Funky, fun nose. Yeast, pear rind, orange peel, chalk and peach. Soft and round on the mouthfeel. Fresh pineapple and guava. Tropical. Really enjoyable with a little chill. From bottle cap.

Jun 13th, 2020Lots of apricot, a whiff of orange blossom, and a sprinkle of salt. Not as much funk as many of Valentina Passalacqua's wines but depending on your taste, that can be a positive or a negative.
