Joaquin Vino della Stella Fiano d'Avellino 2018

This is a white Fiano d'Avellino from Joaquin, a producer that champions the local varieties of Campania, 2018 vintage. The grapes grow on calcareous soil at 700 metres above sea level. They are hand-harvested, carefully sorted, destemmed and macerated for 48 hours. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by a period of maturation. Straw yellow in the glass, it offers aromas of stone fruits, citrus, marjoram, bay leaf and bitter nuts. It is best served cool rather than chilled, and suits fresh seafood.
