Falanghina dei Campi Flegrei (Claudia) – White Wine
A historic white wine dating back to Roman times where its production began on the island of Procida around the Campi Flegrei. The color is pale straw and the bouquet is intense, delicate, and rich. It is also reminiscent of citrus fruits but in particular the lemon verbena. The taste is dry, fresh, ample and elegant.
