| Post subject: | Inycon Grower’s Selection Fiano 2010 Sicily 6.69 |
100% Fiano from Cantine Settesoli selected vineyards in the Menfi area. Vines are 10 years old and planted at 4,200 - 4,500vines/ha. Grapes were hand-harvested with a low yield of 65 - 75hl/ha resulting from poor fruit set and a heat wave which shortened the harvest window. The fruit was destemmed and crushed, then chilled to 8°C and softly pressed in a membrane press with minimal skin contact. Fermented with selected yeasts at 15 - 18°C. No malolactic and stored in tank on lees with bâtonnage. Winemakers Domenico de Gregorio and Owen Bird. Alc 13.0%, TA 5.8g/l, pH 3.38, RS 2.2g/l. Special Offer: Save 25%, £6.69 - £4.99 from 09/11/11 to 06/12/11. Waitrose Wine Direct and 252 branches. IWSC 2011 Bronze Medal Winner. Almost nothing on the nose. Bitter and not very interesting. Might be ok with food, but there are better Fianos out there. 06/10/11 |
