Fiano di Avellino

Cork

White

Aged for 18 months in untoasted tonneaux before going back to stainless steel and remaining there for no less than 11 years, Colle dei Cerri displays a riper nose than the other Fiano in the Tempo lineup. Wildflower honey, candied hazelnuts and a tropical touch segue into petrol and anchovy paste, lifted by a refreshing lemon zest undertone. The oak adds a bit of richness without detracting from the varietal expression. In fact, the palate has a creamy texture, yet the acidity and salinity remain prominent, allowing it to achieve excellent balance. It lingers on a long, minerally finish.
