Unico Zelo River Sand

Unico Zelo River Sand Fiano

WHY WE LOVE IT

  • A vegan-friendly Fiano from Barmera, Riverland.
  • Laura Carter is leading the way as owner and a woman winemaker for Unico Zelo. Her mission when developing these wines… to craft wines that
    espouse a minimal intervention philosophy and create drinkable and refreshing styles of wine.

Varietal Composition: 100% Fiano

Elaboration: There isn’t much we love more than a glass of white wine in the sun, where all you are looking for is something bright, textural, and refreshing – with or without food. For us it’s River Sand. The Riverland brings the fun to this wine, with a lot of pineapple and ripe tropical fruit, but there’s a salinity to it to bring outrageous refreshment. Although, the real joy of this wine is the svelte, almost waxy, oily texture – a hallmark of Fiano in full effect here. Get some before we drink it all.
