2023 The Terraces Falanghina

Destemmed and slightly crushed. The grapes initially go in one-ton insulated bins with dry ice and spend between 20 and 30 hours on their skins. Pressed in a one-ton basket press. Fermented in stainless steel and then moved to mostly neutral French oak for 6 months. Stirred every 2 weeks until bottling. Malolactic conversion inhibited. 368 cases produced. Smells of ripe apples and honey. Ripe golden-apple flavours mix with a touch of citrus pith and a lovely honeyed aroma as wet chalkboard minerality leaves a clean, stony texture in the mouth. Very good acidity. GV (AY)
