A superb choice for your next raw shellfish appetizer, especially at this price, the Cantine Antonio Caggiano 2019 Fiano di Avellino Béchar opens to a radiant, golden appearance and an elaborate bouquet that shows orchard fruit, honey and Golden Delicious apple. The wine sports a razor-sharp backbone of minerality or salinity that really brings it all together. This vintage of 35,000 bottles comes out roaring, both in terms of intensity and balance. It's a beautiful expression of Fiano.

The 2017 Fiano di Avellino Béchar does a terrific job of showcasing the grape and its territory. The wine (aged only in stainless steel) shows a finely knit texture with balanced aromas of pear, white peach and Golden Delicious apple. The bouquet is distinguished by the intensity and the varietal purity of its aromas. This was a hot and dry vintage that seems to have squeezed out the grape's fruity aromas, down to the very last drop. Some 30,000 bottles were made.

The 2015 Fiano di Avellino Béchar is a terrific white wine that is packed tight with honey, pear and sweet summer rose. The wine is very fragrant and expressive and shows soft lusciousness at the back. There is a lot to be appreciated here. It offers a soft and yielding texture with interesting highlights of natural rubber and crushed oyster shell. You get excellent value, too.

Late harvest grapes picked at the end of October make up the 2013 Fiano di Avellino Béchar. Winemaking is completed in stainless steel. This is a standout expression of one of the most promising white grape to emerge from Southern Italy. Its best quality is the mouthfeel that obtains just the right level of creaminess without feeling overdone. The nose exhibits characteristic tones of pear and peach, with spots of yellow rose and candied fruit that come as an unexpected surprise.

Caggiano’s 2011 Fiano di Avellino Bechar boasts striking delineation and expressive inner perfume all in a fairly rich, large-scaled style. White stone fruits, crushed rocks and flowers flesh out in this vivid Fiano di Avellino. There is no shortage of personality here. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2015. Antonio Caggiano’s wines stand out for their overt, expressive personalities. This set of new releases is less consistent than the admirably high standard that has been the estate’s calling card for years.
