Artwine, Wicked Stepmother Fiano 2019, Clare Valley, Australia
Tasting Note: A Fiano (a grape originally from Campania, Italy) with a fresh, green-fruit character bolstered by some supple aromatics.
Pale-intensity lemon in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of lemon citrus, quince, pear and blossom.
On the palate the dry, medium-bodied Fiano has a somewhat creamy texture with medium-intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and some chalk on the midpalate ultimately completing with a medium-plus finish.
Bottle Note: With its origins from southern Italy, our flagship Fiano has elegant aromas of florals and a hint of spice leading to a delicious palate of subtle spiciness with notes of honey and hazelnut. Estate grown and single vineyard.
