Fiano di Avellino Guido Marsella 2023

The Campanian white Fiano di Avellino signed by Guido Marsella presents itself with a structure, both on the nose and on the palate, of great respect, which leads us to immediately foresee the aging potential of this bottle. Yes, because this label can easily be “forgotten” in the cellar for the next 4-5 years, only to be found later in an even more complex and evolved guise. A product that is strongly representative of the Fiano di Avellino DOCG, a denomination that Guido has managed to bring back to the honors of the news with centered and elegant labels.

This Fiano di Avellino comes from the vineyards owned by the Guido Marsella winery located about 600 meters above sea level. We are within a predominantly rocky and clayey terroir, where the plants, exposed to the southeast, are cultivated using the guyot system. The harvest begins towards the end of October and the bunches are selected with care and attention. After destemming, the grapes are pressed and the must ferments in stainless steel containers at a controlled temperature, to then remain, still in steel, to mature for 12 months on the lees. At the end of this period, the wine is ready to be bottled and marketed.

The Fiano di Avellino wine made by the Guido Marsella winery announces itself to the eye with a typically golden color. Complex and fascinating on the nose, it presents notes of smoke alternating with sensations of fruit, including exotic fruit, field herbs, and more mineral touches. On the palate, it is rich, flavorful, with an energetic and lively sip that relies on a truly refreshing texture. A white wine from southern Italy that finds its gastronomic vocation especially in pairing with first and second courses based on fish, prepared in various ways.
