Deep in southern Italy, Palumbo Falanghina shines as a standout example of the region’s ability to deliver authentic wines that over-deliver for their price tag. Crafted at the highly respected, well-awarded Torrevento estate—winner of the Best Producer, Italy title at Frankfurt International Wine Trophy in 2024—it brims with refreshing citrus, green apple and pear notes.
Head winemaker Leonardo Palumbo has crafted his fair share of impressive wines––and many, including this one, offer exceptional value. Very little Falanghina is grown in Puglia, but Leonardo tells us it most likely travelled through the region—thanks to the Greeks—before moving on to Campania, where it is more famously made today.
"Falanghina has rediscovered its identity and value in recent times, becoming a symbol of the wine renaissance of southern Italy," he says. "It's an emblematic grape of the best white wines of Campania and Puglia. It is a wine that speaks the language of the sun, the sea and the hills, a wine that tells stories of ancient traditions and of a winemaking present that looks confidently to the future."
