Inspired by the William Adolphe Bouguereau painting The Youth of Bacchus that graces the label, Altavigna’s ‘La Baccante’ springs forth out of the glass with green apple aromatics, honey, and melon. After manual harvest, the grapes ferment in stainless steel, before brief periods in cement and bottle, keeping things fresh and lithe. Lightly textural but with a clean, to-the-point finish, this mineral-driven and zesty Falanghina is the perfect match any salty, briny cuisine that begs for a break from an intensity of flavor. With time open, softer herbal, yellow citrus, and almond components emerge, but never losing that mouth-watering acidity to keep you coming back for more. Campania in a glass!
