The 2014 Falerno del Massico Vigna Caracci is a surprise hit from a challenging vintage. Fruit is sourced from old vines (planted in 1968) of an ancient clone of Falanghina that has been lovingly brought back to commercial production, thanks to the hard work of the Avallone family that owns Villa Matilde. I had a chance to visit the Caracci vineyard, and it is indeed a site to behold with the extinct Roccamonfina volcano that looms large on the horizon. This wine offers zesty tones of white peach and honeydew melon with crushed stone on the finish. The wine ages on the lees in clay amphorae (with frequent batonnage) for three months. Some 19,000 bottles were produced.
