Fiano di Avellino DOCG 2024 Fonzone

What kind of wine it is

Fonzone Fiano di Avellino is a white wine made exclusively from Fiano grapes grown in Irpinia, in the municipality of Lapio. The vinification and ageing in stainless steel focus on freshness, balance and defined aromas, with a persistent finish and a pleasantly viscous final sensation.

Where it comes from

The grapes come from vineyards located in the municipality of Lapio, in the heart of Irpinia in Campania, a region historically linked to Fiano di Avellino. The manual harvesting and selection reinforce the connection with the plots of origin and a careful management of the raw material, aiming for aromatic clarity and expressive purity.

How it is made

The Fiano grapes are hand-picked and selected during the first ten days of October. After gentle pressing, the must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a low controlled temperature for about a month. Afterwards, the wine ages in steel for five months before bottling.

When to serve
