The “Diana” is a Falanghina del Sannio that comes from the vineyards owned by the Ocone winery located near the municipality of Ponte. We are at about 300 meters above sea level, on a clayey soil characterized by the presence of tuff rock. The bunches, after manual harvesting, are destemmed, and the obtained grapes undergo a cold maceration, before fermenting in stainless steel containers at a temperature kept constantly within certain degrees. The process then continues with the final aging, during which the wine remains for a few months to stabilize in steel, until it is bottled and put on the market.
This Falanghina del Sannio “Diana” Ocone presents itself visually with a straw yellow color, crossed by light reflections tending more towards greenish, especially visible at the rim. The nose is dominated by initial notes of white-fleshed fruit, enriched by more floral nuances and slight toasted echoes. On the palate, it is light-bodied, with a round and satisfying sip, characterized by a pleasant fresh imprint. Quality and price balance masterfully in this Campanian white, perfect on the table with various ingredients and preparations, from pizza to fried fish.
