Straw yellow color with light green reflections. A rich bouquet of white flowers with mineral notes, freshnesss and elegance, good acidity and good body.
Pairs well with seafood, grilled tuna, white meats.
"The 2023 Fiano is another beautiful wine from this estate. Crisp white peach, mint, and some mineral notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, with a balanced, supple mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a great finish."

"Dense stone-fruit aromas, especially white peachm are first on the nose, with crushed rocks and lemon-lime soda cutting through after a moment. Lemon, lime and orange notes on the palate get a salty kick that contrasts the polished, waxy texture. — Danielle Callegari"

"Lots of ripe peach with lightly spicy, earthy notes on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with a focused core of ripe peach, pineapple and spice that gets more and more acute as it progresses. Lots happening. Drink now.”
- James Suckling (August 2021), 90 pts
"Plenty of peach and fresh-pineapple character here to fill out the medium-full body. Fresh and quite long, in spite of the moderate acidity. Drink now."
- James Suckling (October 2018), 90 pts
"A zesty, refreshing fiano; this has scents of orange blossoms and flavors of slightly tart white peach and mandarin orange."
