The palate is grippy and satisfying, with bright citrus fruit and a phenolic, mineral-driven finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA natural match for dishes with some richness and weight - think grilled whole snapper, salt and pepper squid, or a simple pasta with mussels and good olive oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Fiano from Harvey\/Geographe.

The winter of 2024 saw slightly above average temperatures, and above average rainfall that started later but persisted well into spring. Mild and settled conditions around budburst allowed balanced and even early shoot growth progressively hastened as temperatures warmed into October. Spring into early summer saw a perfect rhythm of clear sunny days interspersed with overcast and rainy conditions. Flowering occurred during generally settled weather, resulting in even berry set and good crop levels. A massive rain event towards the end of November saw over 100mm of rain fall in the Ferguson Valley district in less than 24 hours, stimulating strong secondary growth in vines that necessitated additional canopy management. Summer was generally warm with few temperature extremes. A mild heatwave preceded the onset of harvest in second week of February, with white varieties being harvested in quick succession. March saw milder temperatures and cool nights, and with the excellent residual soil moisture allowed perfect conditions for a long gradual ripening of red varieties. The last of the reds were harvested at the start of April. All in all, 2025 will go down as one of the finest vintages in Geographe’s viticultural history, with the wines destined to age gracefully for many years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fearon Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45500721332281,"sku":"25FIA","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0719\/8687\/2377\/files\/2025_FIA_FRONT_faf207ae-45d4-4fd6-a92b-abac59ce7689.jpg?v=1771838655","url":"https:\/\/www.fearonwines.com.au\/products\/2025-fearon-fiano","provider":"Fearon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
