Tasting Notes
Fiano is a grape found commonly in southern Italy (Campania) and Sicily. Small berries, thick skins and low yields make this variety and expensive one for growers. Renowned for it's strong colour, flavours and aromas (honey, spice, florals and nuts) it is fast becoming a favourite in Australia's bars.
Honeysuckle, citrus and spicy cinnamon all leap out of the glass. Lime tart! White peach and citrus blossom, with a saline thread. On the savoury side look for sweet green pea, mint and wasabi. Yes, wasabi, you know you love it. The palate shows sweet lemon/lime, some sensual musk/vanilla, but all with a maritime and briny touch. Rich and long, viscous and textural, yet dances lightly on the palate.
The winemaking philosophy is 'lo-fi', in that we embrace wild-ferments, minimal adjustments in the winery, gentle handling. Most wines are unfined and unfiltered. We are hands-on in terms of the grunt work, the care and guidance, but with a hands-off approach to the science of winemaking, using little or no inputs and employing traditional processes. An old-school approach yet with a modern flare for creativity and adventure.
Established in 2003 by owner/winemaker Brad Wehr, the labels and wine styles have continued to grow, covering traditional Margaret River varietals through to some eclectic and unusual grape varieties and winemaking methods. - Winery Note
