What the Falanghina?!

It’s not surprising if you’ve never heard of Falanghina before, but here, we say it every day. What was once an uncommon tongue twister is now one of our most popular wines here at Speckle Rock. Falanghina (fa-lahn-GHEE-nah) is a fragrant and refreshing white wine from Italy's southern coast. It has been called an "authentic and precious gem" due to its balanced, versatile qualities and its rich history during the Roman era. Here in San Diego, the vines of Falanghina thrive in our Speckle Rock terroir and give us the perfect year-round white wine. 10/10 recommend on your next visit 💛

Spotlight: Falanghina

We are excited to introduce the third vintage of our estate Falanghina, a fragrant and refreshing white wine from Italy's southern coast. Falanghina has been called an "authentic and precious gem" due to its balanced, versatile qualities and its rich history during the Roman era. Its home region of Campania is home to great cities like Naples, Pompeii, and the idyllic beaches of the Amalfi coast. Take a vacation here, and chances are you'll be sipping on Falanghina with the locals. Its affinity for the coast and laidback lifestyle make it feel like a seaside vacation in a bottle. So even at home, we can sit back, pour a glass of Falanghina, and let it take us to the shore.

2019 ESTATE FALANGHINA

VARIETAL: 100% Falanghina

PRONUNCIATION: (fa-lahn-GHEE-nah). From the Latin word 'falangae' referring to the wooden poles that support the grapes in a vineyard

BIRTHPLACE: Campania, Italy

CHARACTERISTICS: Zesty and refreshing

NOTES: Citrus blossom, apple, pear, lime

PAIRINGS:
Traditional: Seafood (Tip: Pair it like an Italian and enjoy it with linguine and clams)
Modern: Thai food

RECOGNITION:
As some of you may know, we've been growing Falanghina since the beginning here at Speckle Rock. The Italian varietal has proven itself to be particularly successful with our terroir here in San Diego. We have received numerous awards and appreciation for its outstanding quality, including gold and double gold medals (a gold medal vote by all panel judges) and multiple 90+ point ratings. We aim to continue this tradition of excellence and bring Falanghina to life here in California.

Stay tuned for our next entry, ‘Pairings: Falanghina’.

Our Thanks To You ❤️

We've decided to extend our free shipping within California for orders of 3+ bottles until Sunday, May 31st. Simply use code ENJOYATHOME at checkout. We look forward to enjoying a glass of chilled Falanghina with you in the tasting room soon. In the meantime, we hope we can help you enjoy these wines at home. Stay safe and be well.
