Gibson Discovery Road Fiano 2024 x 12
Fiano is a heat-loving grape that thrives in warm, sunny climates. This makes it particularly well-suited to hotter regions like the Barossa, where it can easily produce balanced wines with natural richness. In recent years, Fiano has been gaining a solid reputation in Australia, largely due to its impressive ability to retain acidity even under warmer growing conditions.
The 2024 vintage was one of the hottest and driest on record, defined by a severe spring frost followed by widespread drought across many vineyards. Yields were significantly reduced—down 30–40% in most regions, with some suffering even greater losses. Harvest began unusually early, starting on February 5th and finishing by March 19th, marking the earliest on record. Despite the tough conditions, the wines are of impressive quality: concentrated and expressive, with whites and rosés showing greater depth and fullness than in typical years.
Pale straw in colour, this aromatic wine bursts with notes of white lavender, jasmine, and crisp orchard fruits. The palate is soft and silky, offering layers of custard apple, green papaya, and poached pear, all lifted by a refreshing line of acidity.
