Ciro 906 Fiano di Avellino

Ciro Picariello's winemaking adventure began in 2004 in the heart of Irpinia, in Summonte, together with his partner, Rita Guerriero. Today, the vineyards extend over approximately 15 hectares between Summonte and Montefredane, at different altitudes, respectively, between 650 and 500 meters above sea level, on predominantly volcanic soils—rockier in the former and more clayey in the latter. These different terroirs and exposures give rise to unique wines with distinct personalities. The production philosophy is based on environmental sustainability, avoiding the use of herbicides and pesticides, following a meticulous care that has resulted in excellent labels based on native varietals such as Fiano, Greco, and Falanghina, among the white grapes, and Piedirosso, Aglianico, and Sciascianoso among the red grapes. These wines possess a strong minerality and a pleasant freshness that express the most authentic flavors of Irpinia.

Immerse yourself in the winemaking excellence of Irpinia with Ciro Picariello's Ciro 906 Fiano di Avellino, a wine that embodies in every sip the passion and mastery of a producer deeply rooted in his terroir. Ciro Picariello is a name that resonates with respect in the Campania winemaking scene, known for his rigorous production philosophy and unwavering commitment to promoting native grape varieties. This Fiano di Avellino is the most authentic expression of a unique terroir, characterized by volcanic soils and an ideal microclimate that give the grapes unparalleled complexity and minerality. The fruit of meticulous cultivation and winemaking that deeply respects the raw materials, Ciro 906 is a wine that transcends trends, but rather exalts the true soul of Irpinia, offering a taste experience of rare elegance and depth. It's the perfect choice for those seeking a full-bodied white wine, capable of beautifully evolving over time, revealing new nuances with each vintage.

In the glass, Ciro 906 displays a brilliant straw yellow color, enhanced by golden highlights that hint at its richness and complexity. Its clarity and visible consistency demonstrate a well-defined structure and ideal maturity. On the nose, the bouquet is enveloping and complex. Intense notes of white-fleshed fruit, such as Annurca apple and pear, blend harmoniously with citrusy hints of citron and pink grapefruit. Delicate floral nuances of hawthorn and broom are also present, enriched by a characteristic and seductive, almost brackish mineral note, typical of volcanic soils. As it ages, elegant hints of dried fruit and honey may emerge. On the palate, the wine reveals all its extraordinary complexity: it is dry, fresh, and endowed with a vibrant acidity that enhances its drinkability. The structure is impressive, yet balanced by remarkable smoothness and exceptional aromatic persistence. The finish is long and savory, with a pleasant minerality that invites another sip. Ciro 906 Fiano di Avellino is a versatile wine with great personality, ideal for accompanying a wide range of dishes. It pairs beautifully with cold and hot seafood appetizers, fish crudités, and first courses featuring seafood or delicate vegetables. It is excellent with baked or grilled fish dishes, especially sea bass, sea bream, or snapper. Its structure also makes it an excellent partner for light white meats, such as free-range chicken with lemon, and with fresh or medium-aged cheeses, especially the stretched-curd cheeses typical of Campania.
