Rocca del Principe Fiano di Avellino "Tognano" 2019

Rocca del Principe Fiano di Avellino “Tognano” 2019 is one of the more serious, age-worthy expressions of Fiano from Campania's Irpinia region, specifically from the highly regarded Contrada Tognano cru in Lapio, often considered among the best sites for Fiano di Avellino. Notes of herbs, nuts, toasted bread, lemon and orange peel and a blend of flowery grassiness are on the nose before the palate turns fruit-forward with mixed citrus, melon, pear and white peach. 2019 is in a very attractive phase right now. Fiano is one of Italy's most underrated age-worthy white grapes, and wines from top sites like Tognano often gain complexity over 8–12 years or more. Pair with grilled fish and seafood, lobster or scallops, roast chicken and pork loin.
