A radiant expression of the Falanghina grape, born from the sun-kissed vineyards of Roccamonfina in Campania, this shows the volcanic soils of Caserta imbuing its distinct mineral presence. ‘Aorivola,’ meaning "golden hour," pays homage to the magical moments when the sun bathes the vineyards, imparting its essence to the grapes. Fermented with wild yeast, then macerated in oak barrels for a short period of time and aged in stainless steel, its pale straw color with golden reflections evokes the warmth of the Mediterranean sun. The nose opens with delicate floral aromas, white peaches, and a subtle minerality. On the palate, it unfolds with a refreshing acidity and vibrant lemon notes. Crisp green apple, ripe pear, and a touch of honey contribute to a well-balanced and harmonious profile, leading to a finish that is lively and persistent, and leaving an impression of invigorating citrus zest.
I Cacciagalli is an estate in the northern region of Caserta, located at the foot of the spectacular, inactive volcano of Roccamonfina, in the land the ancient Romans called Campania Felix, a particularly fertile terrain which continues to yield exceptional products to this day. Diana Iannaccone is a young agronomist who decided to follow non-invasive methods of cultivation to respect the land of her family’s estate; Mario Basco is a passionate wine connoisseur. Together, theirs is a life’s journey undertaken to share a common passion for wine and for their land, to live their lives fully present, among those very vines and fields. Organic farming and, more importantly, the intelligent, demystified application of biodynamic farming allows Diana and Giovanni to cultivate the terrain, grow the vines, and produce their wines with an approach that is completely natural and simple. The wines they produce are an expression of man and of the territory, never with one to the exclusion of the other.
