Fiano di Avellino 'Pietracalda' Feudi di San Gregorio 2023

“Pietracalda” Riserva is a Fiano di Avellino that takes root in the depths of Irpinia, in Campania. The producing winery is Feudi di San Gregorio, located in the area of Sorbo Serpico. This territory is a colorful mosaic of colors and scents that nature knows how to give, just as it is the conformation, a harmonious alternation of hills, mountains, plains, and numerous waterways. This Fiano is a straightforward wine that, in its ease of drinking, clearly and faithfully reflects a unique and wonderful terroir, made of flowers, plants, sun, sea, wind, and earth. This is Irpinia, which, as Feudi di San Gregorio always emphasizes, has its own identity that distinguishes it from the rest of the Campanian territory.

The Fiano di Avellino “Pietracalda” RISERVA is part of the Selezioni line of Feudi di San Gregorio, the result of the most careful selection of grapes that allows for the maximum qualitative enhancement of the territory-wine binomial. After the careful and precise harvest, the Fiano grapes are pressed, and the obtained must is transferred to steel tanks, where alcoholic fermentation takes place. Once this is completed,the phase that transforms the must into wine, followed by 4-5 months of aging in steel in the presence of its own yeasts, periodically put back in suspension through a technique of stirring the liquid called batonnage.

This Fiano from Feudi di San Gregorio stands out for its pleasantness, both in aroma and taste. Notes of fresh fruit, candied citrus, and yellow flowers are clearly perceived on the nose. On the palate, it reveals its varietal identity and delights the taste with softness balanced by saltiness and freshness. The “Pietracalda” is a wine of sun and wind; it is a wine of hills and sea, of aromas and freshness. In short, an authentic expression of Irpinia.
