Descrizione

Falanghina DOC La Vespa - Amarano is born in the heart of Campania, a land rich in sunshine and wine-growing tradition. This wine expresses itself through the Falanghina grape, native and loved for its freshness and aromaticity. Grown on calcareous-clay soils, it benefits from an ideal microclimate that favors the development of intense and complex aromas. The winemaking method involves careful fermentation and aging in steel tanks, to preserve the vitality and purity of the fruit.

In the glass it shows a bright straw yellow color, while on the nose emerge notes of white flowers, white-fleshed fruit, and a slight hint of Mediterranean herbs. On the palate it is fresh, savory, and harmonious, with a persistent finish that invites another sip. Perfect to pair with seafood dishes, light appetizers, and grilled vegetables, La Vespa enchants with its refined elegance and well-defined territorial identity.

Winery history

Amarano was founded as a family-run estate in the Montemarano area of Alta Irpinia. Public sources report the business began in 2004; management is carried out by family members who oversee both the farming and the winemaking decisions. Over time the estate has focused its production on the area's traditional grape varieties, favoring extended aging for the reds and lees contact for the whites.

Production philosophy

The winery declares a strong connection to the tradition of Irpinia: it primarily produces wine from native grape varieties, maintains low yields, reduces the use of chemical products by adopting integrated pest management protocols, and limits the use of sulfites. In the cellar, stainless-steel fermentations alternate with aging in barriques and large casks to enhance the wines' structure and longevity.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in Montemarano, in the heart of Irpinia, the estate cultivates vineyards situated on hills of predominantly volcanic and sandy origin, at elevations of around 500–700 m above sea level. The area is characterized by marked diurnal temperature variation and soils that enhance acidity, minerality and structure in the wines.
