Tasting Notes

An outstanding wine brooding with complexity. Falanghina’s classic lemon and citrus notes initiate on the nose, before a blast of sulphurous character. Intense kerosine and broom. The palate is stylish, moderately oily but charged with fresh acidity. Outstanding wine and one likely to age gracefully.
