Benchmark expression of Fiano from Arianiello, Lapio, regarded as Fiano's "grand cru" site. Floral, fruity and mineral with nuances of aromatic herbs when young, hints of hydrocarbons and toasted hazelnuts together with flinty and smoky notes emerge with age. A wine that will continue to evolve over the next decade.
"Fresh and juicy, with lovely inner-mouth peach and lime perfumed and depth. Crystalline, pure aromas of apple, lime pith, pear and herbs. Plenty of focus and energy on the long finish, which showcases subtle sweetness and strong dusting of powdered rocks." (Vinous - 92 points, 2018 vintage)
