Cantina La Guardiense I Classici Guardiolo Falanghina Sannio
Expressive and intense Italian white
Falanghina is an ancient Italian white-wine grape, reportedly of Greek origin. Straw yellow colour with green reflections. The nose expresses intense floral and fruity notes of considerable intensity. In the mouth it combines a remarkable complexity with a pleasant freshness. It goes well with fish or vegetable dishes. Excellent on white meats and with soft cheeses.
Cultivated on the suitable hills of the Benevento Sannio, in an extremely prized location from the point of view of the soils. Mainly characterized by alluvial terraces, volcanic plateaus on grey tuff and ancient hills on marl, these lands are able to produce ripe undiluted fruit to make amazing wine.
La Guardiense is a leading co-operative in Campania, close to Benevento. The winery has excellent vineyards in the Sannio denomination, named after the Samnites, a hardy tribe that fought off the onslaught of the Roman army for decades.
Rest assured, the wines from La Guardiense are not just any wines. They are expertly crafted by winemaker Marco Giulioli, renowned for his passion and dedication, and consultant Riccardo Cotarella, a master in the art of winemaking.
