The 2010 Falanghina Sannio is a beautiful, expressive wine at this level. Like so many 2010 whites it is cooler and more minerally than is often the case. Sweet floral notes linger on the exquisite finish. This entry-level Falaghina, from vineyards in the Sannio district, is quite different from the estate's Falanghina Morabianca, which is made from vines in Irpinia. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014.
Mastroberardino is one of Italy's most historic properties. My vertical tasting of the estate's Taurasi (published in Issue 190), with vintages back to 1928, was a revelation.
