Falanghina del Sannio DOC 2021 – Rossovermiglio

This Falanghina del Sannio DOC is everything we love about Southern Italy in a glass.
Every time we open a bottle of Rossovermiglio’s Falanghina, we’re reminded of Campania’s wild beauty: the breeze and the long tables full of good food and laughter.
This is a wine that feels familiar, yet always a bit surprising. It’s the citrus at the end of a sunny day, the elegance of simplicity done right.

We love it because it brings us back to those memories — and because it turns even a Monday night dinner into something worth savouring. You’ll love it for exactly the same reasons.

Rossovermiglio

Rossovermiglio is a story of family, ideas, and deep passion. The winery was born from a centuries-old winemaking tradition in Paduli, in the Samnite heart of Campania.
As early as the 1800s, the Verlingieri family was growing high-quality red grapes and producing wine, which they sold in their cellar located in the historic center of Paduli. This legacy has been passed down through generations. Since 1988, Piero Verlingieri has led the company. Just a few years later, in 1992, he began replanting vineyards—this time favouring white grapes over the reds of family tradition. The name Rossovermiglio remains a tribute to the family’s roots and evolution.

Today, Piero and his wife Maria Teresa are the custodians of this long-standing heritage. For them, making great wine means following strict vineyard and cellar practices, always in respect of the local traditions and the land itself.
Rossovermiglio works exclusively with native Campanian grape varieties; a deliberate choice to preserve and promote the unique identity of some of Italy’s most fascinating vines.

Falanghina

Falanghina is an ancient white grape thought to descend from Greek-Balkan origins. Its name comes from “falanga,” the traditional stake used to support the vine.
Once nearly abandoned, Falanghina survived the phylloxera epidemic and eventually experienced a true renaissance. Today, it is widely grown across Southern Italy and recognised for its quality.
This grape produces fresh, expressive wines with bright white fruit aromas, often enriched by subtle, bready notes from lees ageing. Styles range from crisp, easy-drinking versions to more complex, mineral-driven wines with impressive ageing potential. With time, Falanghina can even develop petrol-like notes, similar to aged Riesling.
