Beautiful Isle Fiano Blanc 2024

(0)

$40.00


First harvest from Bruce McCormick's new vineyard, situated less than 1 km from the Tamar River and Bass Strait. Cool climate conditions create a long growing season moderated by ocean influence and ample humidity. The 2024 vintage brought exceptional sunshine, ripening the fruit earlier than previous seasons and developing lovely skin complexity.
Fiano is a premium Italian white varietal, and this Tasmanian expression showcases cool-climate elegance with vibrant acidity and minerality. Ideal for seafood, fresh pasta, and lighter dishes.

Beautiful Isle

Aroma

Wafts of salt infused winds and some grassy notes
are forefront with green pear and blossom coming through as
the wine unfulrls.

Palette

There is a lovely taught and structured entry
with precision acid at the core surrounded by nutty cashew
and yuzu. So refreshingly lovely

Pairings

Try it with Tasmanian scallops, salt and pepper calamari, or a squeeze of lemon over grilled prawns. It also suits sushi and sashimi, or a soft goat's cheese salad with fresh herbs. For something simple, a bowl of salted almonds and a sunny afternoon does the trick.

Wine Making

Fruit was brought into the winery in late March.
The tiny amount of fruit was crushed and destemmed into the press and allowed to gain four hours of skin contact before gently pressing through a basket press. Ferment was
spontaneous performed in older French oak barrels on full
solids.

Meet the owners

Beautiful Isle Wines began in 2010, when co-founders and winemaking partners Cynthea and David found themselves with some odds and ends in the winery from the Marion's Vineyard estate. For fun, they blended them together on the tasting bench, creating an estate-grown white and red field blend. They liked the results so much that they bottled them, and soon realised the wines needed a home of their own.

That home became Beautiful Isle Wines, inspired by the property's original crop: apples. In the old apple shed, Cynthea and David discovered a series of vintage apple crate labels, which an artist has since incorporated into the Haven and Beautiful Isle labels that adorn the first releases. Iconic in fruit label art, these are two of the brightest, friendliest crate prints around, and a perfect fit for the wines inside. The word "Fancy" was used in the 1930s to mark top quality fruit, which is exactly the spirit here. Fancy Wine! Fancy That!

Tamar Valley

About the region

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania's oldest wine region, stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait in the state's north. Its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils create ideal growing conditions, and the numbers speak for themselves, home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania's total wine production. Viticulture here goes back a long way too, with the first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, its cuttings even helping establish some of South Australia's earliest vineyards. Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and sparkling wines, each one reflecting the region's exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
