The 2009 Falanghina Taburno emerges with endless layers of flowers, honeysuckle and ripe fruit. It is wonderfully long and pure on the palate, with an exotic personality that makes for highly pleasurable drinking. A crisp finish rounds things out nicely. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014. Biodynamic farming and a non-interventionalist approach in the vineyards are the rule at Ocone.Importer: Polaner Selections, Mt. Kisco, NY; tel. (914) 244-0404

Here’s a very well priced Falanghina with overt and very mature aromas of apricot, peach and sweet honey. It feels smooth and silky and ends with a blast of yellow fruit flavors. ——M.L.(6/1/2011)—— 86

Made from organically-grown grapes, this is one of the most aromatically sophisticated expressions of Falanghina you will find. This wine boasts a saturated golden hue and aromas of ripe fruit, peach, citrus blossom and drying mineral are more complex than expected.——M.L.(3/1/2011)—— 86

This organic Falanghina offers juicy aromas of peach, honey, pear and pine nut. It’s a textbook white wine from Southern Italy that would pair beautifully with appetizers thanks to its crisp, fruity flavors. ——M.L.(10/1/2008)—— 85

There’s a slightly awkward quality that recalls soda, aniseed, candied orange and peppermint powder. These elements make for an odd but distinctive wine with pungent pineapple flavors in the mouth.——M.L.(10/1/2008)—— 83
