Falanghina Vigna Astroni 2020, Astroni
A monumental white wine for its rigor and territorial identity. The olfactory profile alternates between ripe yellow fruits and extremely refined volcanic and saline notes. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the wine's richness and its acidic tension. A stylistic achievement that confirms Astroni as the guardian of urban and volcanic viticulture.
Falanghina Vigna Astroni 2020, Astroni
The Falanghina "Vigna Astroni" 2020 from Cantine Astroni is an iconic cru born on volcanic sands, within a natural oasis in the heart of the Phlegraean Fields. This wine represents the successful challenge of producing a Falanghina capable of evolving over time, thanks to a skillful aging on the lees that enhances its structure. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of yellow peach, broom, and candied citron blend with deep hints of hydrocarbons, sage, gunpowder, and a mineral trail that evokes sulfur and the sea breeze. On the palate, it is sumptuous and textured; the entry is broad, dominated by dense and savory matter that stretches toward a vertical, long finish with endless aromatic persistence, characterized by hints of toasted almond and a smoky trace.
