Tasting notes
A blend of 60% Greco Bianco, 23% Falanghina and 17% Fiano that is whole-cluster pressed and then fermented separately in neutral oak. Malolactic inhibited. Sterile filtered. 1,533 cases produced. Smells of candied lemon peel, pomelo pith and wet chalkboard. Bright lemon-oil and lemon-pith flavours mix with grapefruit and a hint of white flowers. Crisp, bright and delicious, with a hint of bee pollen and yellow herbs that emerges in the finish. VGV (AY)

Inspired by the wines of southern Italy, the 2023 Gemina is a blend of 60% Greco, 23% Falanghina and 17% Fiano matured for six months in used French oak and stainless steel. It has pure scents of apples, freshly baked bread, spring honey and almonds. The medium-bodied palate is citrusy and salty with taut acidity and alluring textural grip. 1,533 cases produced.
The 2023 Gemina is a blend of Greco, Falanghina and Fiano, all native varieties of Italy's Campania. Dried pear, white flowers, chamomile and savory notes build beautifully. There's gorgeous textural depth and resonance here. A touch of skin bitterness lingers on the close.
