Vulcanico · Falanghina Basilicata IGT 2023

  The Vulcanico Falanghina Basilicata IGT from Cantina Paternoster is a bright, fresh white wine that impressively reflects the volcanic origins of its terroir in the hills surrounding the extinct Monte Vulture. Made exclusively from the Falanghina grape variety, this wine is rooted in soils of basaltic and volcanic origin—a special location that gives it distinctive minerality and authentic provenance. The grapes are carefully harvested and aged in stainless steel to preserve their freshness and authenticity.

In the glass, it reveals a straw-yellow color with delicate green reflections - a visual sign of clarity and youth. The nose unfolds aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and a hint of exotic fruits such as mango and papaya, accompanied by salty minerality and a fine herbal note that makes the proximity to the sea breeze palpable. On the palate, Vulcanico is lively and balanced, with juicy fruit, a clear structure, and a fine-grained mineral foundation—a wine that is recommended both as a stylish aperitif and as an accompaniment to light fish and vegetable dishes. - Gerardo [TS10/24]
