Falanghina del Sannio DOC 2021

Falanghina 100%, Sannio DOP. The Monserrato 1973 winery offers it here. Falanghina, it should be remembered, is the prince of Sannio vine-growing, capable of interpreting this territory with innumerable nuances, expressing different characters from zone to zone. Specifically, the one proposed by Monserrato is the result of careful company zoning that has made it possible to identify only the parcels best suited to expressing the elegant side of this extraordinary vine. After harvesting, by hand in small crates, the grapes are brought to the winery to be sent to the soft pressing stage of whole bunches. The must is transferred to steel tanks and sent to temperature-controlled fermentation. At the end of this phase, the wine is matured on its fine lees in steel tanks for at least 9 months. Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections, the nose is easy to detect hints of pear, white pepper and gunpowder, particularly a few months after bottling. In the mouth, on the other hand, it is characterised by beautiful depth and generous length, in perfect balance between freshness and structure.
