Oliver's Taranga Falanghina 2025

We have been learning so much about the Falanghina variety and how it grows in our McLaren Vale ‘Taranga’ vineyard over the last few years. It is such a new variety to our shores, that very little was known about how it would perform compared to its native home in the Campania region of Italy. Turns out, it is a VERY good cropper! It doesn’t have very big berries at all, just giant bunches filled with small ovoid balls of joy! Some bunches are so large, that you can only get one in a whole bucket- hows that for a great handpicking experience?!? Keeps the bucket boys on their toes, the grapegrower smiling and the winemaker having to find another concrete egg at late notice for the fermentation!!
