Feudi Studi Fiano Morandi 2019
Look beyond Italy’s most famous grapes and you’ll find a plethora of unique varieties that produce deliciously expressive white wines. A wonderful example of this is Feudi Studi Fiano Morandi – a luscious, aromatic white wine from the heart of Campania.
It’s from the iconic Feudi di San Gregorio in Irpinia, an award-winning winery dedicated to championing the region’s lesser-known grapes – Greco di Tufo, Falanghina, Aglianico and Fiano.
One of Italy’s most expressive grapes, Fiano can trace its roots back to ancient Rome and has been cultivated in Southern Italy for more than two millennia. It has left its mark on many regions, including Puglia, Basilicata and Sicily, but it is in Campania – and in particular the province of Avellino – that Fiano truly excels.
Made with grapes from a handful of small parcels and matured on the lees for up to 10 months, this is a voluptuous, rounded white wine with impressive ageing potential. It’s full of juicy orchard fruit, melon and peach flavours, with savoury, smoky undertones that will pair deliciously with seared scallops, roast chicken or oysters.
