<p>Gismondi’s very first sparkling wine – lively and refreshing – crafted in the traditional method, this “col fondo” style fizz begins with directly pressed Falanghina from the 2022 vintage, then undergoes a natural second fermentation in bottle using 2023 must, with no disgorgement.</p><p>Pouring a hazy golden hue, with bright notes of citrus zest, green apple, and a hint of white peach. The signature peachy richness of Falanghina is lifted by the savoury salinity of lees contact and the limestone soils of the vineyard. Soft and mousse-like on entry, it rolls through notes of orchard fruit, citrus blossom, gentle leesy spice, and a subtle hint of sweet almond on the finish.</p><p>Winemaker Antonio Gismondi returned to his family’s biodynamic vineyards in Cerreto Sannita in 2018, shifting from restaurant life to produce natural wines guided by a simple philosophy: grapes only. Farming 2 hectares at 350 metres over limestone and clay, along with small local plantings of Trebbiano Rosa, he creates six wines known for their freshness, delicacy and saline lift – distinctly lighter and more vibrant than the region’s typical styles.</p><p>Origin: Campania, ItalyVintage: 2022Grape varieties: FalanghinaFood pairings: Aperitif, light dishes, salads, seafood Bottle size: 75clABV: 12.5%</p><p>ORGANIC / BIODYNAMIC / VEGAN / NO ADDED SULPHITES</p>
