2024 Mandrarossa Fiano

From breezy coastal slopes in Menfi on Sicily’s south-west coast, Mandrarossa’s Fiano captures the island’s Mediterranean brightness and balance. Aromas of white flowers, citrus and tropical fruit rise from the glass, leading to a palate of ripe pear, melon and subtle honeyed notes. The texture is rounded yet fresh, finishing with a gentle saline lift that reflects its coastal origin. Graceful and finely tuned — ideal with grilled fish, lemon pasta or soft cheeses.

Mandrarossa represents the forward-looking side of the Settesoli cooperative, founded in the 1950s to showcase Sicily’s best vineyards. Today, a new generation of growers combines careful vineyard management with precise winemaking to produce wines of clarity and character. This Fiano is a fine example — modern, pure, and unmistakably Sicilian.
