Selva Della Rocca

2015 Puglia Falanghina

Cantine Le Grotte's Selva Della Rocca is a delightful vintage from 2015, showcasing the unique character of Falanghina, a grape variety native to the beautiful region of Puglia. This white wine is light-bodied, offering a refreshing and crisp experience with a bright acidity that dances on the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring inviting notes of citrus and stone fruits, which are beautifully balanced by a mild dryness that enhances its food-friendly nature. With a smooth, delicate finish and an easygoing charm, this wine is perfect for enjoying on a sunny day or pairing with a variety of dishes, making it an excellent representative of Puglia's winemaking heritage.

Puglia

The heel of Italy's "boot," sunny Puglia (the "g" is silent), is famed for its olive oils, almonds and of course, its rich, full-bodied wines. Although dry and intensely hot in the summer, Puglia has coastlines on three sides, providing cool Mediterranean breezes to alleviate the daytime heat. Primitivo (known in the US as Zinfandel) does well here, with other popular red varieties including Sangiovese and Negroamaro. But it is not all about reds in Puglia: the local Fiano grape produces gloriously nutty, tropical-flavored white, while Falanghina makes intensely fruity wines with citrus blossom notes.
