Falerno del Massico Masseria Felicia

The whole line of Falerno del Massico wine produced by the small Masseria Felicia winery, both the reds and whites, stand out for their expressive intensity and propensity to age.

The small Masseria Felicia estate produces its wines in the area of Monte Massico. Felicia Brini manages the family estate, was founded in 2000, which is immersed in the green landscape and, being not far from the sea, benefits from mild sea breezes that, combined with the volcanic soil, create an idea microclimate for the vineyards. The warm winds, dry climate and distinct temperature variations are other factors that contribute to producing top-quality grapes.

The tuff stone winery is situated inside the old family farm complex and is surrounded by small parcels of vineyards for a total of five hectares where the Aglianico, Piedirosso and Falanghina can best express themselves.

Falerno del Massico, which has been produced in this zone for 2,000 years, acquires particular characteristics at Masseria Felicia including expressive intensity and a propensity to age. These are found not only in their top-shelf Falerno del Massico Rosso Etichetta Bronzo but in their full line of wines, which nicely reflect the territory.
