A broad and comforting style of Fiano, this release from Maxwell Wines needs food by its side.
Raw cashews and hazelnuts make the first impression. Golden apple, spiced pear and white-fleshed stonefruit flow through, brightened by touches of lemon zest and juice. The texture is firm but approachable with a delicate minerally tickle and a hint of warming spice on the finish. In the end, this Fiano is an example that demonstrates respectable fruit, savoury nuances and balance without being showy.
