Fontanavecchia Falanghina del Sannio Taburno 2020
Campania, ItalyThis falanghina comes off the limey marl soils of Sannio, in Campania, at 350m. It was raised in stainless, to preserve the fresh fruit. There's such a wild scrubby rosemary note that runs thoughout this wine, with ample concentration and fresh acidity to match. Acacia blossoms, bosc pear, quince, honeysuckle, white grapefruit, meyer lemon merge seamlessly on the medium palate, lingering with stony spice. Very smart.Tasted: 25 March 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
