Fiano Di Avelino Peppino

Description

The Maffei Family has its origins in Roccabascerana and have lived for centuries in the historical centre, exactly where the centuries-old lime tree stands out as featured on the label. Fiano di Avellino is fined in stainless steel tanks and is treated with the “Batonnage” technique, which conditions the wine in its lees for at least one year. The wine is stirred with a stick so that the lees lying at the bottom come up in suspension. Yeast autolysis is facilitated and the wine takes parietal mannoproteins, protective colloids that bond the more reactive tannins.

TASTING NOTES

Floral, herbal, lemon, verbena and lychee. Firm, almost austere palate with subtle yet fresh fruit, savoury complexity and long dry finish. It has a more or less intense straw yellow color, enhanced by lime green highlights.The herbal notes typical of Fiano Avellino come together with hints of nuts, like almonds and hazelnuts, citruses and apples.

FOOD PAIRING

An intense and pleasant aroma and a fresh and harmonious flavour make Fiano di Avellino a perfect wine to match fish, shellfish, prawns, non-seasoned cheeses and white meat. Fiano di Avellino goes wonderfully as an aperitif too.
