2021 Sanitte Falanghina del Sannio $15.99 / Case Price $12.80 | Benevento / Campania / Italy 100% Falanghina Culled from a number of small farmers, the Sanitte Falanghina offers typical Falanghina aromas of honey and flowers.

2019 Benito Ferrara Vigna Cicogna $29.99 / Case Price $24 | Avellino / Campania / Italy 100% Greco di Tufo Fermented with indigenous yeast in stainless steel, the Cicogna spends an additional 7 months in tank, absorbing additional weight and flavor from the wine’s fine lees. Leading with mineral, backed by crunchy white fruit. |

2019 Mastroberardino Lacryma Christi Rosso $21.99 / Case Price $17.60 | Vesuvio / Campania / Italy 100% Piedirosso From vineyards located at the foot of Mt Vesuvius, the Piedirosso grape is the chosen vehicle for expressing the distinctly mineral, indeed ashen character of the zone.

2018 Terredora Dipaolo Aglianico $16.99 / Case Price $13.60 | Campania / Italy 100% Aglianico Sourced from a variety of hillside sites scattered throughout the Campania area, Terredora’s youthfully exuberant Aglianico is kept with the skins only briefly to avoid over extraction of the grape’s fierce tannins. A friendly, easy going example of the varietal. |
