Falanghina in the Sannio landscape

The Benevento denomination gives the grape several named wine styles.

Falanghina del Sannio puts Falanghina at the center of a wine territory in Benevento province. Hills, depressions and varied sedimentary ground form its setting. The grape also has two distinct sparkling routes here: fermentation in a pressure tank and Metodo Classico fermentation in the bottle. Those named styles offer useful ways to explore Falanghina through one documented Campanian denomination.
