Description

Cruess’ 2021 Fiano from California’s Russian River Valley offers an elegant blend of Italian heritage and Sonoma County craftsmanship. Sourced exclusively from Bowland Vineyard’s intimate one-and-a-half-acre plot, this crisp white wine showcases Fiano’s signature brightness while delivering unexpected depth through innovative winemaking techniques.

Winemaker Anthony Cruess extended maceration for nine days prior to pressing—a method that amplifies complexity without sacrificing freshness—resulting in a wine that balances vibrant acidity with rich texture. Expect aromas of ripe melon and tropical papaya intertwined with a distinctive saline nuance reminiscent of salted pistachio.

Designed for adventurous palates, this versatile white pairs exceptionally well with bold flavors like spicy curries or aromatic stir-fries; its acidity cuts through heat while its layered profile elevates dishes without overpowering them. At 12.9% alcohol by volume, it remains approachable yet sophisticated enough for any occasion—from casual gatherings to refined dining experiences.

As a standout example of California’s Italian varietal wines, this Fiano distinguishes itself through meticulous vineyard care and creative winemaking choices. Perfect for fans of food-friendly whites seeking something unique yet familiar, it embodies both tradition and innovation in every glass.
