Lila 2019 - Falanghina

Tenuta Cavalier Pepe

Lila

Falanghina is an ancient vine whose origins date back to Antiquity and which has found its best expression in Campania. It is thought that the word derives from the Latin "falanga", referring to the pole used to support vines. The "Lila" cuvée is a 100% Falanghina grown on the hills of Luogosano and Sant'Angelo dell'Esca, located within the Irpinia Falanghina DOC production area.

The grapes are hand-picked and pressed whole. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is matured on its fine lees before bottling.
