Wine 1: Di Prisco Fiano di Avelino
Fiano or Vitis Apicia is a vine in all probability dating back to Greek times, which established itself in the Italian peninsula with the Romans, found its home in Irpinia and hence the name Fiano di Avellino which goes to delimit in a certain sense the production area of the DOCG. The latter is partly included in the Partenio regional park, consisting of the Serino Plain and an extensive hilly strip of altitude between 300 and 600 meters, limited to the west by the Partenio mountain group and to the east by the Terminio-Tuoro Group. The soils are characterized by the presence of clay mixed with sand. Notes of stone fruit, hints of almond and citrus round out this beautiful wine. Perfect with roast chicken, salmon or pork.
Wine 2: Bodegas Avancia Godello
Sourced from one of the oldest, most traditional vineyards planted in Valdeorras, Avancia Godello expresses the authenticity the history of Valdeorras and the oldest genetic material of Godello in the world. A completely unique white wine that ages beautifully and has been recognized by Robert Parker as Spain's best Godello.
This wine has a nose of peach, dried apricot and almond blossom. Stone fruit and floral flavors transition to the palate. Creamy mouthfeel, balanced acidity and a soft note of vanilla make for a nice finish. 93 Points - Wine Spectator
