In 2018, I finally decided to plant white grapevines for a wine that would be a unified whole, a natural consequence of the chosen blend. Thus, Fiano for the skeleton, the supporting structure; Falanghina to provide pulp and flesh, and Malvasia for the skin and aromas. After 5 years, the plants are mature for the first still white wine.
An extremely challenging vintage, with pervasive and intense downy mildew infestations.
