🍋 Tasting Notes

A vibrant, modern Fiano with both freshness and texture. The nose is lifted and aromatic, showing citrus curd, lemon zest and subtle pithy notes. On the palate, it’s intensely flavoured yet balanced—zesty citrus drives the front, while a gentle nutty, textural layer adds depth and interest. Crisp natural acidity keeps the wine lively and focused, finishing clean and refreshing with lingering citrus and a lightly savoury edge.

A standout alternative white—zesty, textural and quietly complex. The citrus intensity and subtle nutty edge make this a smart step-up from everyday whites and an excellent addition to any mixed dozen.
