{"product_id":"valentina-passalaqua-frecciabomb-calcarius","title":"Frecciabomb Calcarius","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Frecciabomb Bianco is a vivid, electric transmission from the white limestone soils of the Gargano National Park. Part of Valentina Passalacqua’s revolutionary \"Progetto Calcarius,\" this wine is a celebration of the Kimmeridgian calcium, an element so central to the wine's identity that its atomic number (20) and atomic weight (40.08) are emblazoned right on the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from 100% Falanghina, captured in the bottle before its first fermentation ends, the result is a wine that feels alive: naturally sparkling, delightfully cloudy, and bursting with the raw energy of a Puglia spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, it is an explosion of citrus zest, crunchy pineapple, and wild Mediterranean scrub, layered over a distinct, chalky minerality. On the palate, it’s all about the \"crunch\". Expect a bone dry, vertical acidity that cuts through like a laser, balanced by a fine, creamy bubble and a refreshing finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfiltered, undefined, and wildly drinkable, Frecciabomb is a testament to Valentina’s non interventionist philosophy. More than a sparkling wine, it’s a \"bomb\" of freshness designed for long afternoons, salty snacks, and the kind of effortless joy that only true natural wine can provide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour: \u003c\/strong\u003eIntense straw yellow with a natural, hazy opalescence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose: \u003c\/strong\u003eBright and citrus-forward; aromas of spicy clementine, lemon peel, and green pineapple, with hints of honey and wild thyme. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate: \u003c\/strong\u003eTaut, vertical, and bone-dry.
