Description
Experience the exquisite Vesevo Beneventano Falanghina 2023, a remarkable white wine that captures the essence of Italy's scenic Benevento region, renowned for its ideal vineyard conditions. This vintage stands out, not only for its challenging origin story but also for the exceptional quality of its grapes, resulting in a medium-bodied, dry white wine that delights the palate.
The grapes used in this wine are meticulously cultivated in vineyards located at an altitude of 400-600 metres above sea level, where they benefit from the perfect sun exposure alongside a unique blend of volcanic, clay, and limestone soils. Each of these natural elements contributes to the wine's characteristic freshness and vibrant acidity.
- Tasting Notes: This wine presents an aromatic profile that sings with lively citrus and floral notes, complemented by hints of ripe peach and subtle almond nuances. The palate is silky, featuring a precise balance of bright peach and citrus zest wrapped in a creamy texture that is framed by mineral-driven freshness.
- Finish: A crisp, mineral-driven finish unfurls with echoes of bright citrus zest and delicate almond bitterness, leaving a clean and refreshing lingering impression.

Storage advice
Store white wine at a consistent cool temperature between 7°C and 13°C (45°F to 55°F) ideally around 10°C to 12°C to preserve delicate aromas and freshness without accelerating aging or risking chilling damage.
Keep the bottle away from direct light and UV exposure as light can degrade wine quality and cause premature aging; a dark windowless storage space is best.
Maintain relative humidity between 60% and 70% to prevent the cork from drying out and shrinking which could allow air ingress and spoil the wine.
Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist and sealed against air which is critical for bottles sealed with natural cork.
Avoid temperature fluctuations or extremes that can cause expansion/contraction cycles damaging the cork seal or wine chemistry. Stability is more important than precise temperature.
For opened bottles reseal tightly with the original cork or a wine stopper and refrigerate at 4°C to 7°C (39°F to 45°F). Consume within 2-3 days to maintain optimal freshness.
No special storage modifications are typically required for this type of white wine beyond these standard best practices.
