2020 Unico Zelo Alluvium Fiano [D94]

Producer: Unico Zelo Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia  Varietal: Fiano  Year: 2020   Decanter, 94 Points  "Incredibly, five-year-old vines at Gumeracha have produced fruit of surprising finesse and feistiness. Proud, taut and trim, the palate melds fresh, zesty grapefruit, lime and a crunch of firm Nashi pear, and a quartz grip that accentuates a savory edge. Minerality just wins out in the end."  Winemaker Notes:  "Lemongrass, lime-leaf, guava, but there is that incredible flinty, reductive whiff that is always here when the wine is in peak form. As you may pick up - it is in peak form. So much grapefruit and quartz charging down the middle of the palate, with bits of jasmine and nectarine trailing in its wake. I don’t think we’ve captured the Birdwood soil profile so well in a wine before. You could chew on this acid for days. Alluvium feels special this year."  Alcohol: 13.5%  Vegan friendly  *Price and availability in store may vary. Vintage date may differ from
