2016 Amato Vino Fiano
$25.00
A new one from the Ricca Terra Farms home property. Fiano is a grape found commonly in southern Italy (Campania) and Sicily. Small berries, thick skins and low yields make this variety and expensive one for growers. Renowned for it’s strong colour, flavours and aromas (honey, spice, florals and nuts) it is fast becoming a favourite in Australia’s bars. 100 dozen only.

Description
Organically-grown Fiano, handpicked and wild-fermented in stainless steel tank on solid lees, stirred regularly for complexity. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Honeysuckle, citrus and toasty cinnamon all leap out of the glass. Lime tart! On the savoury side look for sweet green pea, mint and wasabi. Yes, wasabi, you know you love it. The palate shows sweet lemon/lime, some sensual musk/vanilla, but all with a maritime and briny touch. Rich and long, viscous and textural.
Enjoy with or without food.
Brad –
The palate has weight and texture. The mid-palate is where the action is at but there’s a kick of apple, grapefruit and citrus to the finish; an entirely positive finale. 92 Points
