Irpinia Falanghina "Demetra" DOC - Company: Antico Castello

Straw yellow with vivid reflections. On the nose it offers immediacy with perceptions of unripe apple, almond and cut grass, enriched by decidedly saline hints. On the palate, fully balanced, it authoritatively reveals its qualities of acidity and savouriness, lingering persistently on warm and mineral flavours.
