Fiano – Salento, Monteparano
Fiano is an aromatic Italian grape known for its floral expression and fresh structure.
Harvest takes place at the end of August. The grapes are destemmed and remain in contact with the skins for several hours at a low temperature to extract aromas. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks for almost two weeks at 15 °C to protect the varietal profile. Subsequently, the wine matures for five months in stainless steel.
In the glass, this Fiano displays a straw yellow color. The aroma is delicate with white flowers, citrus, and notes of Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, the wine is elegant, fresh, and mineral, with a pleasant length.
Serve at around 10–12 °C to best highlight its freshness and aromatic finesse.
Campi DeAntera, located in Sava in Southern Italy, operates with the philosophy that each vineyard has its own soil, wind, and sun, and that each grape knows its own place. With care and attention, they strive to interpret what is written in each "are." The estate focuses on origin-driven wines that reflect the character of Salento as purely as possible.
