 "I'M A FIANO LOVER" ROBERTO DI MEO EXCLAIMS ON A WALK His approach to winemaking, in the quiet southern Italian hills of Irpinia seems at times like that of a tinkerer or an antiquarian. Working in tiny Salza Irpina with local varieties, particularly the white Fiano, Di Meo does things no one else does with aging in pursuit of hidden flavors and nuance. For all his Fianos, he has used some degree of maceration on the grape’s thick skins and has fermented in small batches, both with indigenous and selected yeasts. Aged Whites from Southern Italy? | Wine Spectator
