Fontanavecchia 'BjondoRe' - Falanghina del Sannio

Campania, Italy

2023

100% Falanghina

Fontanavecchia is located in Southern Italy just outside of the small town of Benevento and was founded by the Rillo family in the early 19th century. They remain a family owned winery today and it has since been restored and expanded to over 18 hectares. The volcanic soils that make up this region are known for creating powerful reds, but whites like this one are gaining international attention for being full-bodied yet having an incredibly balanced acidity. This wine is made from 100% Falanghina, an indigenous grape to the region. With tasting notes of citrus, dried herbs and touch of spice you can pair this wine with a Margherita pizza or baked shrimp with plenty of garlic and oregano!
