Viticulture
Belice Agrigento – mid-way across Sicily on the southern coast.
The grapes are picked by hand in mid September and are carefully selected.
Vinification
The grapes are destemmed, soft pressed using a pneumatic press, then left in contact with the skins for about 12 hours at 10°C for optimum extraction of the aromas. Fermentation takes place at about 14-16°C. We do not do malolactic fermentation in order to retain all the natural acidity of the wine. We then leave the wine on its fine lees at a constant temperature of 16°C until the end of January. Prior to bottling at the end of February/beginning of March, we do a very gentle filtration.

2021 Cantina di Marzo Fiano di Avellino DOCG
Regular price £24.69. Extremely seductive wine that is easy to drink despite its complexity.
Tasting Notes
Colour
The wine is crystalline, straw yellow with greenish reflections.
Nose
Intense and complex on the nose, with notes of linden, jasmine, pear and passion fruit.
Palate
A fresh and fairly savory wine, which releases delicate notes of citrus, flowers and honey on the palate.
Production
Only the best free-run must is used for our Fiano selection. It is fermented with great care in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks using selected yeasts. The wine then rests on the lees for six months, to give complexity and structure. The malolactic transformation takes place partially depending on the natural acidity of the harvest. Before being bottled, the wine is lightly filtered and stored at cellar temperature until it is judged ready for the market.
Producer
In 2023 Cantine di Marzo joins Fivi, the Italian Federation of Independent Winegrowers, an association that guarantees consumers with its members values of craftsmanship, territoriality and sustainability. In fact, the company completely takes care of the entire production cycle of its wines and Irpinia Aglianico Doc, from the cultivation of the grapes, to bottling and final marketing.
With an annual production of about 120,000 bottles, the Cantine di Marzo still maintains the character of a small family-run company, whose wines, however, are present in more than 12 countries around the world.
