jeb dunnuck logo 250"The 2023 Falanghina is a saltier, more mineral-driven beauty offering clean white peach-like fruit, medium-bodied richness, nicely integrated acidity, and a great finish. It's going to absolutely shine on the dinner table and be as versatile as they come. This is 100% Falanghina brought up in tank, and it's made in reasonable quantities, so it should be easy to find. Give it a try!"

 "A solar, summery nose offers ripe peaches and orange slices with a salty swipe of tahini before a palate that's even more peachy and honeyed, but also citrus and warm, with the refreshing salinity of a passing seabreeze. — Danielle Callegari"

james suckling hq logo plain"I love the effusive lemon and lemon-blossom nose of this falanghina and it’s matched by a juicy palate and moderate acidity for this grape. Drink now."
