About this wine

Boccantino Fiano Appassito is a refined and aromatic white wine from the sun-drenched vineyards of Salento in Puglia , southern Italy . Made using the traditional appassimento method, where a portion of the harvest is partially dried to concentrate sugars and intensify flavour, this is a wine of real aromatic depth and elegance. Why You'll Love It This is southern Italian white winemaking at its most characterful. The appassimento technique gives Boccantino Fiano a richness and intensity that sets it apart from everyday whites, while the Mediterranean terroir of Salento keeps it fresh, vibrant and beautifully balanced. Delicately off-dry with a long, lingering finish, it is as versatile at the table as it is enjoyable on its own. Vineyard and Production Grapes are grown in the sun-drenched vineyards of Salento, benefiting from the Mediterranean climate and well-drained soils that allow the fruit to achieve optimal ripeness. Only the best fruit is hand-harvested, with a portion then undergoing partial drying to concentrate sugars and intensify aromatics. Fermentation is carefully controlled to preserve the natural character of the Fiano grape, and the wine is partly aged in wooden barrels for three months, adding subtle complexity without masking the varietal freshness. Tasting Notes Elegant and expressive on the nose, with aromas of citrus, tropical fruits and almonds. The palate is fresh and aromatic with a delicate off-dry character, beautifully balanced acidity and a long, pleasant finish. A wine that rewards both the curious and the connoisseur. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for shellfish, soft cheeses, light seafood dishes and Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. Also excellent as an aperitif or alongside a sharing board of antipasti.
