Campania produces some of Italy's best and most distinctive white wines, and this is a fine example: clear struck flint aroma, with hints of white peach, preserved lemon, flowers, and herbs; medium-plus weight, excellent fresh acidity, very long finish. The wine is made of organically grown Coda di Volpe (80%) and Falanghina (20%) grapes, fermented and aged in stainless steel with no oak or malo-lactic fermentation.
