PRODUCT INFORMATION
'Nec cellis ideo contende Falernis', wrote Virgil in his Georgics: 'Don’t try to outdo Falernum.'
This most famous wine in literature and history is a blend of Aglianico and Piedirosso; the clusters are carefully quality-selected from the hillside vineyards on the San Castrese estate growing on the slopes of the extinct Roccamonfina volcano, in the province of Caserta.
