Fiano d'Avellino, Feudi di San Gregorio 2025

Fiano is Campania's star white grape, long overlooked but now getting back in the limelight. This example is stainless-steel fermented for crisp precision, then aged briefly on lees to build texture. Expect citrus and stone fruit upfront, a flicker of almond in the background, and a mineral streak that runs through to the finish. Think of it as Italy's answer to white Burgundy or top-flight Loire - layered, age-worthy, and never short on character.

Versatile with food: excellent with grilled seafood, chicken, or creamy pasta dishes, where its freshness cuts through richness.

Founded in 1986, Feudi di San Gregorio are relative newcomers in Campania, but in less than 30 years they've carved out a reputation for world-class wines while bringing what was once something of a vinous backwater to the fore. Based in Sorbo Serpico, they champion indigenous grapes such as Aglianico, Fiano and Greco with a modern, design-driven edge. And their striking labels, bold winery architecture and commitment to art signal an outlook that stretches far beyond the cellar.
