Falanghina

The perfect example of our Radici Vive concept is: light, vertical, aimed at freshness and without fear of time that on the contrary offers unique evolutionary expressions to our Falanghina.

At the beginning of the 700 A.C. boats, unknown languages and goods arrived everyday to the Cuma’s harbor, with them, in the heart of the burning field Greek people brought the first grapevines. The result of the first cultivation, was so called “vinum album phelangium”. 

The gateway to wine in the ancient continent was wide open, there where ancient tales, between volcano vents, they would have set myths and legends. It was born what would later become Falanghina.

Straw yellow color with greenish reflections are perceptible olfactory notes of fresh fruit in particular pineapple and pear, the taste is characterized by a sustained acidity and a good persistence.
