The Falanghina del Sannio Senete di La Guardiense was produced from 100% Falanghina grapes grown in the area of Santa Lucia di Guardia Sanframondi (BN) in the heart of Benevento's Sannio. The vineyards cover an area of about 30 hectares at an altitude ranging from 120 to 400 meters above sea level. The soils here are the result of a fascinating mosaic of different types, including sandy-gravelly soils of the alluvial terraces and the black soils of the marly hills that shape the landscape. In the cellar, the winemaking process involved a brief phase of cryo-maceration of the must at 8-10°C to enhance the extraction of primary aromas. Alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks for about 20 days at a controlled temperature of 12-15°C. The wine was aged for 3 months in stainless steel. The Falanghina Senete is part of the Janare Cru line of the Sannio from the cooperative winery La Guardiense.

FALANGHINA DEL SANNIO SENETE LA GUARDIENSE

The Falanghina del Sannio Senete di La Guardiense presents itself with a straw yellow color and bright reflections. On the nose, it displays aromas of tropical yellow fruits, wildflowers, along with hints of aromatic herbs and Mediterranean citrus fruits. On the palate, it is fresh and pleasantly mineral, with a persistent floral and citrusy taste. It pairs well with fresh cheeses, vegetarian dishes, as well as flavorful recipes based on white fish, shellfish, and crustaceans. It is a great match with spaghetti with puntarelle and anchovies.
