Review
The 2020 Bianco Fiagre, a blend of 70% Fiano and 30% Greco, is delicate and understated in the glass. Notes of pear, apple, crushed sea shells and dusty flowers can be found with coaxing. It's textures are luxuriously silky yet refined, with minerals-tinged orchard fruits and subtle hints of spice. There's excellent persistence through the finale, as a saturation of pit fruits and a salty flourish give way to honeyed inner florals. The Bianco Fiagre takes its time to fully blossom, but once it does, it's such a pure and harmonious wine. "Lovely" is the word that comes to mind.

Luminous yellow. The performed nose combines lemon, hazelnut, fresh herbs and vanilla. At once fresh and broad, but also chewy and dense; strong, harmonious acidity and a saline quality nicely frame the smooth midpalate. Plenty of stuffing here, but also very good sugar/acid/extract balance. Finishes with lovely length and lift.

A layered and complex white, this is dense and dry with lots of dried fruit, such as lemons and mangos. Full and flavorful. Long and intense. A real beauty. Drink now.

Bright straw. Aromas of pear and honey are complicated by botanical herbs. Enters rich and ripe, then turns brighter and fresher in the middle. Finishes spicy and delicately peppery, displaying a youthfully tannic quality. A blend of Fiano and Greco that offers clearly recognizable elements of both grape varieties (the vibrancy and herbal notes of cool-climate Fiano wines and the tannic nature and fruitiness of wines made with Greco). This strikes me as a very successful Fiagre, a wine I have never been particularly impressed by.

Bright straw-yellow. Sappy aromas of fresh nectarine, peach and herbs. Ripe and lush, with a simple set of flavors similar to the aromas but plenty of texture. Finishes with average length and good lemony cut.

The 2021 Bianco Fiagre is incredibly fresh, with sweet mint, stone dust and smoke giving way to crushed apples. It balances rich, nearly-oily textures with crisp pit fruits and saline-tinged acidity to create a sensaiton of contrasts. The 2021 finishes fresh with a salty sensation as a touch of raw almond slowly fades. The Fiagre is a beautifully balanced blend of 70% Fiano and 30% Greco.
