Fiano di Avellino in Campania is the most famous appellation for Italian Fiano. Here, the naturally low yielding variety flourishes in the volcanic soils. This floral scented example opens with some gentle lemon notes. Succulent and juicy on the palate, it has a squeezed lemon and lime character with white flowers and some stone fruit hints. The finish is long and pure.
