Mastroberardino Fiano di Avellino 2022
Full bodied, fleshy and textural Italian white grape, Fiano, makes exceptional wines and we?re excited to have this newcomer in store. Fiano was almost completely forgotten and has had its flagging fortunes revived by the Mastroberardino family, which is based in Irpinia. This dry, arid and hot region is inland from Campania, the region that is home to pizza, Naples and the great story My Brilliant Friend.
The Mastroberardino family, leaders in Italian viticulture, are largely responsible for the revival and elevation of Irpinian and Campanian winemaking post WWII. Their efforts ignited a resurgence in quality red and white wine production in all of Southern Italy. Working primarily with Campania?s ancient, native varietals, Fiano, Greco, and Aglianico, Mastroberardino has resuscitated would-be extinct grapes into world class varieties.
