2024 Fontanavecchia - Falanghina del Sannio DOC (750ml)
Grown under the strict yield limits defined by the Falanghina del Sannio DOC, the 2024 Fontanavecchia bottling captures the racy acidity and aromatic intensity that characterize Campania’s flagship white grape. The 2024 vintage delivered gradual maturation alongside preserved freshness, allowing the grapes to develop concentrated stone-fruit and citrus oils without losing their native vibrancy. On the palate, expect compressed Meyer lemon, pear skin, and crushed white flowers, anchored by a distinct stony minerality that carries cleanly through to a saline, almond-tinged finish.
This structure pairs cleanly with briny and lightly cured preparations. Raw oysters, grilled branzino, spaghetti alle vongole, and fresh ricotta or goat cheese salads highlight the wine’s cutting acidity and herbal lift. It also stands up to herb-roasted chicken, artichokes, and bitter greens dressed in olive oil, where its firm backbone prevents rich components from overwhelming the glass. Serve chilled between 46–50°F (8–10°C) to preserve the primary aromatics. Each 750ml bottle contains a single-appellation release meant for consumption within three to five years of the harvest date for optimal clarity and fruit definition.
