Organically-grown Fiano grapes are hand-harvested from the south-facing Cannito vineyard, toward the Gulf of Salerno. The grapes are de-stemmed and soft pressed before chilling for a short criomaceration to gain aromatics from the skins; the wine is then aged on its lees. Showing a floral nose with green apple and pear; jasmine alongside citrus on the palate and savoury notes.
