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.

Pago de Carraovejas El Anejon is made from 93%, Cabernet Sauvignon 5% and Merlot 2%.
El Anejon vineyard is a terraced plot on a steep slope, oriented toward the sun and with great views of the Castle of Peñafiel. The soil of the narrow terraces has a compact, loamy limestone texture. The presence of the white-colored limestone calcium salts contributes to a distinctive minerality in this wine. Only made in exceptional vintages.
Review:
"A single-plot wine from the top terraces of the site from an excellent vintage, the 2021 El Anejon is powerful and truly outstanding. Tempranillo is blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to an exceptional end, aged 12 months in larger French oak barrels after a triple selection of the grapes. Sharp red fruit has an underbelly of herbal earthiness beneath the fruit, while tight, refreshing acidity accentuates the mineral-driven texture. Bottled in June 2023, this might be the producer’s best wine of the vintage, which is saying a lot, as they’re all of outstanding quality. This will hit a high point in 5-7 years and keep going another 20. - Virginie BOONE"

Figaro Tinto Calatayud is 100% Garnacha, made from a selection of the best grapes grown in the oldest vineyards. While not truly an "oaked wine", a short stay in oak barrels provides a nice spicy flavor boost.
Tasting notes: Bright violet. Dark berry and cherry aromas show a jammy aspect. Supple and gently sweet, with good lift to its black raspberry and boysenberry flavors. Smooth and broad on the finish, leaving behind a hint of spiciness. Extremely easy to drink and an excellent value.
