Wine Review: This pale straw colored Fiano from Planeta opens with a pretty and pleasant lemon and juniper bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied and slightly acidic. The flavor profile is a tart yellow grapefruit with notes of minerality and hints of green apple and almond. The finish is dry and its flavors linger for a very long time. The Panel suggested pairing this wine with roast chicken. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Delicate aromas of broom flowers and thyme along with chamomile, hay and mango and pomelo. A mineral palate with vibrant traces which quiver and quench. Then the rhythm changes to become slower and more harmonious. The finish presents a silky tactile sensation with a refined aftertaste of ripe apricot, of almond flowers and basil flowers. Pair with freshly caught and grilled snapper.
