Fiano is an ancient white grape variety from Campania, renowned for Fiano di Avellino DOCG. It thrives in volcanic and tuffaceous soils, producing aromatic, age-worthy wines.<\/p>\n

Characteristics<\/h2>\n

The wine has a golden-yellow hue with green reflections. The nose offers honeyed notes of pear, hazelnut, and toasted bread, with a flinty mineral undertone. On the palate, it is rich and textured, balanced by vibrant acidity and a long finish of bitter almond.<\/p>\n

Pairings<\/h2>\n

Perfect with seafood risotto, grilled octopus, and creamy cheeses like Burrata di Andria.<\/p>\n

Curiosities<\/h2>\n

Fiano was prized by the Romans as \u201cVitis Apiana\u201d (bee vine) due to its sweetness attracting bees. Nearly extinct post-WWII, it was revived in the 1970s. <\/p>\n
