Description

Falerio is a DOC in the Marche region made from three authorised white grapes, the principal ones being Trebbiano and Pecorino.

The Ciu Ciu Falerio Bianco is a blend made from all the white grapes grown on the Ciu Ciu estate, including the very rare Passerina, which is found mainly in the Marche region. Despite the tasty name, Pecorino appears only linked to the cheese of the same name due to sheep liking to munch on Pecorino grapes.

This is a wine that screams "Drink me now!". It has beautiful aromas of lychee, peach and honeysuckle, and is surprisingly medium bodied, so it has some nice weight on the palate. It would go perfectly with any kind of seafood or light pasta dish.

This wine is produced in the hilly territories of the Ascoli Piceno province, approximately 300 metres above sea level. The autochthon vines, Pecorino and Passerina, successfully joined to Trebbiano, ennoble and characterize the wine, that can be drunk few months after the harvest. it has a delicate, straw yellow colour with green shades that emphasizes its light acidity and freshness. The bouquet is sweet with a fruit and white flowers perfume. The taste is fresh and slightly bitter.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
