San Salvatore, Falanghina IGP, Campania, Italy 2022

San Salvatore's Falanghina IGP is a bright straw yellow color. Aromas of citrus, green apple, banana, pineapple, orange blossom and Mediterranean scrub. Fresh and enticing on the palate with a satisfying finish. Delicious with seafood and light pasta dishes.

The grapes for this wine are carefully selected by hand from San Salvatore's Cannito vineyards. Vinification involves 6 hours of cryomaceration; soft pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine ages in stainless steel tanks on the lees for 6 months before release.

San Salvatore is located in the heart of the Cilento National Park, near Paestum, Stio and Giungano, in the Campania region of southern Italy. With 149 hectares devoted to organically-farmed agriculture, including vineyards, olive groves, and crops that support their 550-head of water buffalo, San Salvatore has quickly become one of Italy's most environmentally-conscious azienda agricolas.

In 2006 Giuseppe Pagano, a successful entrepreneur and hotelier in the Paestum region of Campania, created San Salvatore 1988 from a series of unique plots of land in Cilento and various vineyards across the region. The winery is named for Giuseppe's firstborn son, Salvatore, who was born in 1988.
