2023 The Pawn Fiano

This is one of those wines where everything just seems to fall into place. There's plenty of bright, juicy fruit up front, but it finishes dry, fresh and a little savoury, with a touch of spice that keeps you coming back for another sip. It's uncomplicated in the best possible way, seriously satisfying to drink and exactly the sort of lesser-known variety we love finding, which is why it made the cut.

What to eat with it?

Seafood is a winner here, particularly grilled fish, prawns or shellfish, but it'll also be brilliant with a creamy pasta or anything with plenty of fresh herbs and vegetables.

Drink now or later?

It's drinking really well now, so there's absolutely no need to wait. Fiano can develop nicely with some bottle age though, so you could comfortably give it another 2–3 years if you're curious to see where it goes.
