2026 Singlefile Great Southern Fiano

Fiano is a white Italian grape variety that is grown primarily in the Campania region of southern Italy and on the island of Sicily. It has been introduced to the Great Southern region in more recent years and the 2026 season delivered good growing conditions for fiano. Temperatures were consistent, with relatively low rainfall, encouraging fruit with nice depth of flavour.

The fiano fruit was picked after dawn on 22 and 24 March 2026. The fruit was sorted and then pressed. The juice underwent a long and slow cold fermentation in a stainless-steel tank immediately after pressing to preserve the natural fruit characters. When the wine had completed its fermentation, it was racked off its lees. The purpose of this approach is to maintain the subtle textures and crisp finish. The wine was prepared for bottling on 6 August 2026.
