92 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review, Jan 2025 “Light to mid straw-yellow with a tinge of brass; a straw/hay and dried herb bouquet, a hint of toasted nuts. Tensioned and layered palate profile with lemon the dominant flavour together with a nutty overtone, and the finish is full, clean and dry. Long, resonant aftertaste. Lots to like here. Drink 2025-2029”
100% Falanghina. From vineyards located in the territory of municipality of Torrecuso in the province of Benevento - on calcareous clay, marl-clay, slime and sandy soil.
Description
This is a fine expression of Falanghina and the volcanic soils it's grown in. A pretty white with substance. The stone fruit notes are balanced by a generous ripeness and perfectly poised acidity. Ample and generous impact; well-balanced hints of citrus, pineapple, white peach. Fresh and satisfying; excellent balance between acid and salty flavours with volume. Full and dry finish.
White wine produced only with Falanghina grape from vineyards located in the province of Benevento. Grape is harvested manually and transported to the cellar in small boxes to avoid crushing the berries. Grapes are subjected to a soft pressing of whole bunches to obtain the flower must. The vinification and aging on the fine lees for 4 months takes place entirely in steel vats. ''Falanghina is an indigenous varietal from Campania with lively acidity and intriguing floral and mineral flavours.'' - Eric Asimov, New York Times

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Villa Raiano
Villa Raiano is a family-owned vineyard at 400m near San Michelle di Serino. Falanghina is a local grape variety with citrus and white stone fruit aromas. Villa Raiano Falanghina has notes of mineral notes and honey on the crisp finish. The family-owned winery of Villa Raiano was established in 1996, in the village of Raiano, Campania. In 2009 a new winery was built - on top of a hill amongst vineyards and chestnut woods, overlooking the River Sabato near San Michele di Serino in the Southern Apennines. They are dedicated to producing a range of wines from local varieties Aglianico, Fiano and Greco - primarily sourced (80%) from 20 hectares of their own organically farmed vines, across three DOCGs. They also produce Falanghina from vineyards owned by local growers.
