I Cacciagalli | Aorivola Falanghina 2023

The Aorivola 2023 is a masterclass in volcanic viticulture. Born on the slopes of the extinct Roccamonfina volcano, Diana Iannaccone and Mario Basco have crafted a Falanghina that defies industrial standards. The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. A brief 12-hour skin maceration provides texture and a golden hue without losing freshness. The wine ages exclusively in concrete tanks to preserve its citrus-driven profile and saline backbone. Bottled unfiltered and unclarified, it retains every nuance of its terroir.

Aromas: A sharp, vertical bouquet of Spanish broom, bitter orange peel, and lemon zest, underpinned by a distinct smoky, flinty minerality.

Palate: The entry is crisp and electric. A high-voltage acidity is perfectly balanced by a savory, sea-salt finish and a light-to-medium body that makes it incredibly drinkable.
