A fresh fiano with honeysuckle, flint, oyster shell and green pear aromas that follow through to a medium body, creamy texture and fruity finish. Lightly salty at the end. (JS)

The Mastroberardino 2019 Fiano di Avellino Riserva Stiléma takes a few extra minutes to express itself. That slight hint of initial reduction blows off to reveal soft citrus, exotic fruit, white peach and pear. The wine's flinty mineral signature is well defined. Fruit is sourced from four vineyard sites, and the wine is mostly aged in stainless steel with just 10% in barrique. Production is 6,700 bottles. (ML)

The 2019 Fiano di Avellino Riserva Stilema is aromatically intense, with a burst of ground ginger, cumin, incense and crushed green apples. This is a seductress, with a sweet burst of ripe fruit up front that is quickly contrasted by a twist of lemon zest and brisk acidity. The incredibly fresh, the 2019 is also impossibly long, finishing with a sensation of liquid stone and a pleasantly bitter tinge that calls me back to the glass for more. (EG)

A brilliant expression of Fiano’s potential for complexity, this shows textural depth with notes of hazelnut, pear, and honey, all held together by vibrant acidity.

Notes

Mastroberardino’s 2019 “Stilema” is a profound Fiano di Avellino Riserva, born from a project to rediscover a more traditional, age-worthy style of Campanian whites. The nose is complex and evolved, with notes of dried apricot, chamomile, and toasted hazelnut, layered over a core of flinty minerality and a hint of beeswax. On the palate, it’s richly textured yet vibrant, with bright acidity framing savory stone fruit, saline undertones, and a distinct herbal complexity. The finish is long, savory, and exceptionally nuanced. A contemplative and gastronomic white that showcases the remarkable aging potential of Fiano.
