Bella Luna Fiano | Central Victoria, Australia

£20.20

An Italian inspired white from Australia

The Fiano grapes are grown in McPherson’s vineyards in the north of Victoria. This region has long, baking, sunny days and mild evening temperatures – perfect for the growing the varietal. The grapes were harvested during the cool of the night to maintain fruit freshness.

The wine was barrel fermented in various parcels, with extended lees contact to build structure yet retain good fruit balance
