From the Winery:

Greco 50%, Falanghina 34%, Fiano 16%. Gemina is the name of an ancient Roman grape planted in the region around the Massican hills of southern Italy. This grape variety originates from Greece, dating back to the first century when it was first called Aminea Gemina. Today, we know this grape variety as Greco. Gemina is a unique white wine blend combining grapes originally from southern Italy and now grown in California. This blend balances our winery’s familial history in southern Italy with our passion for fresh coastal white wines of the Mediterranean.

Ratings & Reviews:

94 Points - James Suckling:
Full and rich-tasting at first sip, then brilliant in acidity and citrus on the palate. Lots of chalky, mineral, lemon-zest and saline flavors are tight and refreshing. So linear and energetic. Made from 50% greco, 34% falanghina and 16% fiano. Drink now or hold.

95 Points - Owen Bargreen (2024):
The 2024 ‘Gemina’ is a unique blend of mainly Greco and Falanghina with a touch of Fiano. The name is inspired by an ancient varietal that dates back to the first century AD, called Aminea Gemina. This is dazzling on the tongue, showing insanely good flavor range from lychee and macadamia nut to salted peach, lemon rind and suggestions of honeydew melon. Gorgeous now, with serious weight and tension, alongside salty nuances, enjoy over the next eight to ten years.

94 Points - Decanter (2024):
The 2024 Gemina is one of Massican’s most distinctive blends, composed of 49% Falanghina, 45% Greco and 6% Fiano. Whole-cluster pressed and fermented in stainless steel and oak barrels, it was aged for five months in a mix of stainless steel and used French oak. Bright and super lemony, the wine pulses with lime zest and soaring acidity, underscored by oyster-shell minerality and a distinctly savoury, saline edge. Light- to medium-bodied, it carries a lifted energy, layered with white flowers, salted Marcona almonds and a snappy, zippy finish that leaves the palate refreshed and wanting more.
