Welkin Falanghina 2025
Aphelion Wine Co. | McLaren Vale
A bright, textural expression of Falanghina from McLaren Vale, Welkin captures the variety’s Mediterranean origins with unmistakable Aphelion precision. Late-ripening and naturally high in acidity, Falanghina thrives in McLaren Vale’s warm days and cooling coastal influence, producing a wine of purity, energy and poise.
Sourced from the Oliver family vineyard in the Seaview sub-district, this is only the second crop from the site. Fermented in a combination of concrete egg and seasoned French oak, Welkin balances generous fruit with restraint, length and subtle texture.
Tasting Notes
Pale straw in colour. Aromas of tropical fruit, crisp rockmelon and nashi pear leap from the glass, layered with ripe stone fruit and floral lift. Clean and pure on the palate with bountiful fruit framed by piercing natural acidity. A light textural element from time on lees carries the wine to a long, refreshing finish.
