Wine from Falanghina del Sannio
Filter
Falanghina del Sannio is an Italian white wine grape region. Falanghina del Sannio is located in Campania, which is often referred to as the “shin” part of the boot of Italy. The Falanghina del Sannio area is just North of Naples and consists of mountainous terrain. In 2010, Falanghina del Sannio was granted DOC as a single variety. Wines produced from Falanghina del Sannio include passito, vendemmia tardiva, and sparkling spumante. Falanghina grapes produce the main components of Falerno del Massico and Galluccio wines. Falanghina grapes add sweetness, much like that of honey to the wine. The ancient philosopher, Pliny the Elder, was fond of the Falanghina area and the grapes produced there. It is said that his famous phrase “vino veritas”, which translates to “there is truth in wine”, was inspired by the grapes grown in Falanghina del Sannio.

Intense ruby red color. Hints of spices, fruit and flowers, a bouquet that reflects the soil on which it is born, rich in Alberese. In the mouth it is soft, with a pleasant acidity that makes the wine fresh and lively. Sweet and ripe tannins give the wine a pleasant persistence. Riserva dei Colli is an excellent expression of the Estate's Sangiovese, so much so that it bears its name.
Review:
Bordering on opulent, this red features blackberry, black currant, plum, iron and spice aromas and flavors, matched to a velvety texture. Firms up as the resonant tannins emerge, yet remains harmonious and long. Drink now through 2032. 1,700 cases made, 570 cases imported.

Cabrieres Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge Les Silex is made from 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah .
The vineyard is situated on the high tablelands, which are characteristic of the northern area of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The terrain consists mainly of alpine diluvium and chalky Miocenian soil, with large flint pebbles covering the surface. These pebbles conserve the heat of the day during the night, thus avoiding too much evaporation.
This 2020 has opened up and is drinking great right now. A blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah. Elegant cherry red color, with expressive notes of red fruits (strawberry and raspberry). Mellow tannins, well-balanced on the palate. I feel I need to point out the freshness, it is bright and lively on the palate, something we don’t see a lot of in this region. This also makes it extremely food friendly as it can hold up to fatty proteins.
Very good with white meat, red meat, charcuterie and cheese.
