''Clean and pretty nose, ripe, broad, and complex, also fullish palate with fine salinity and minerality, with balance and fine aromas of citrus through to lemon-lime zest. I like the palate presence, the seamless nature, the evident depth and concentration. Very sharp value indeed.'' 92 Points, John Szabo, WineAlign.com

''Look for ripe pears and white flowers on the nose, reminiscent of jasmine and a little acacia honey. Elegant drinking flow with a subtle, creamy texture and a nutty, medium finish'' Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler, Falstaff Wine Guide

''Fiano di Avellino DOCG is one of Italy's greatest white varieties, offering sumptuous aromatics, as well as great complexity.'' Forbes.com
