The wine region of Fiano de Avellino
Campania DOCG across 25 hilly Irpinia communes, 50 km east of Naples. Fiano signature white king (locally cultivated for 2,000 years): ample and complex with signature notes of honey, toasted hazelnut, pear, apricot, white flowers, Mediterranean herbs and smoky mineral hint, round and long palate — capable of rare ageing for a southern white. Continental upland climate (300-500 m), volcanic and clay-limestone soils. Gastronomic wine on fish and cheeses.
The wine region of Campania
Cradle of southern Italy's great wines on volcanic soils. Majestic Aglianico in red: structured, deep and tannic with notes of black cherry, candied plum, leather and spices, sublimated in age-worthy Taurasi DOCG, the "Barolo of the south". Identity whites of Irpinia: opulent Fiano di Avellino (honey, hazelnut), mineral iodine Greco di Tufo, aromatic Falanghina (peach, flowers). Also supple Piedirosso.
The word of the wine: Blanc de blancs (champagne)
Champagne made only from the Chardonnay grape. The expression has been somewhat overused by the intensive use made of it by certain large distributors of white table wines (or sparkling wines) who were thus seeking to promote their product.
