2024 Eldorado Road Dreamfields Fiano

Concentrated and mouth filling with crisp acidity and a long generously fruited finish.

Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Pear and lime aromas are trailed by some apple skin, slate and spicy herb notes. Concentrated pear, lime and green apple fruits flood the mouth with some guava, infusions of fresh herbs and slatey mineral elements extending across the back half. Excellent textural volume with crisp acidity and a long generously fruited finish that has a juicy feel.
Drink over the next year.

Other Reviews….
Pressed to stainless steel, fermented in French oak with a mix of wild and cultured yeasts, 5 months in oak on full lees. All hail North East Vic fiano, a grape that, vintage after vintage, shines. So aromatic – spring flowers, white peach, citrus, baked apple – and so concentrated across the middle palate, but also juicy and fresh. A leesy, nougat, almond meal texture builds, but it is the persistence of the finish that nails it so convincingly. Drink by 2029.
