Description

DAMNATIO MEMORIAE
From the Santa Maria Boccadoro vineyard

Produced exclusively from grapes from the “Santa Maria Boccadoro” vineyard, as indicated on the label, it is a blend of equal parts Falanghina (50% Beneventano clone and 50% Campi Flegrei clone, both from a 15-year-old vineyard), Moscato (Terracina clone from a 40-year-old vineyard), and Pallagrello Bianco (from a 15-year-old vineyard). These grapes were described as early as 1800 by Luca Menna, a notary in Carinola and a historical bibliographer. A novelty in the Campanian white wine scene, it is often considered the white version of our Falerno.

“Oblivion is essential for our lives. To defend ourselves from the excess of information, to
grant our mind the rest it needs to regenerate. And then, oblivion.
of our sadness and our defeats brings us relief, but it also represents
the essential prerequisite for starting over again.”
