The Falanghina IGT from Cantina dei Monaci is a true expression of the Benevento area. This white wine, cultivated on the fertile hills of Campania, a cradle of ancient wine-making traditions, enchants with its lively character and fresh aromaticity.

On the nose, it presents an intriguing and complex bouquet. Notes of white-fleshed fruits such as peach and pear blend with hints of white flowers and nuances of aromatic herbs, creating a rich and pleasantly summery olfactory profile. Delicate mineral nuances are also perceived, thanks to the volcanic soil where the vines are rooted, enriching the complexity of the bouquet.

On the palate, Beneventano Falanghina IGT surprises with its vivacity. The acidity is well balanced and supports a structure that lingers elegantly in the finish. The taste is clean, with a return of the white-fleshed fruits and a persistence that leaves a pleasant sensation of freshness.

Ideal to be served cold, at about 8-10°C, it pairs beautifully with fish dishes, both baked and grilled. It is also excellent with light appetizers and can be an intriguing match with fresh cheeses and vegetable-based dishes.

Lovers of white wines will find in the Falanghina IGT from Cantina dei Monaci not only an extremely pleasant wine to drink but also a sophisticated example of how a historic grape variety can express itself with modernity and sophistication. A glass of this wine is not just a drink, but a sensory journey into the green heart of Campania.
