Falanghina BruEmm di Ciro Picariello is produced from vineyards in the Benevento area. Located at 400 meters above sea level, the south-facing vineyards have calcareous clay soil; the vines have an average age of 15 years. The harvest takes place at the beginning of October; the grapes are de-stemmed and crushed and the must is cooled at 8°C for 24 hours. The fermentation is carried out slowly at a controlled temperature around 12-13° C for 60 days. Aging takes place in stainless steel tanks with frequent batonnages for 5 months, then in the bottle for an additional 2 months before being marketed.
