Fiano is known for producing aromatic and texturally rich wines, often characterized by a combination of floral, citrus, and herbal notes.
- Colour: Hints of straw on the rim, alluding to it's youth and vibrancy
- Aromas: The wine offers a complex bouquet of aromas. Expect vibrant citrus notes, such as lemon and tangerine, intermingled with floral scents like white blossoms and hints of honeysuckle. Herbal undertones, reminiscent of fresh herbs like thyme or mint, might also be present.
- Palate: On the palate, our Fiano displays a delightful balance between zesty acidity and a slightly oily texture. The wine's light body carries flavours of ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, supported by tangy citrus flavours. Herbal nuances translate into a refreshing savoury quality, enhancing the wine's overall complexity.
- Finish: The finish is crisp and lingering, with a combination of citrus zestiness and a touch of herbal freshness.
- Ageability: While Fiano is often enjoyed in its youth for its vibrant fruitiness.
- Food Pairing: Fiano's versatile character makes it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes. Its acidity and herbal undertones can make it a great match for seafood, particularly dishes with white fish or shellfish. It can also complement lighter poultry dishes, vegetable-based dishes, and salads.
Our Fiano offers a harmonious blend of aromatic complexity, textural richness, and refreshing acidity, capturing both the grape's inherent qualities and the nuances of the Hunter region.
