Ratings & Awards,
The Vineyard
The Falanghina vines are Guyot-trained and grow in limestone and clay
soils at 300-400 metres altitude. Harvested in the last half of
September, they are gently pressed and fermented in steel for 10 days at
controlled temperatures, with no malolactic fermentation.
Montecalvo is a large cooperative of around 1,000 members, founded
in 1960. Its 1,800 hectares of vineyards are cultivated mainly with
Falanghina, but also Aglianico, Greco and Fiano, on soils ranging from
alluvial to volcanic - 30km to the north of the city of Benevento.
