Mandrarossa Fiano 2025
£11.75
The wine
Bright yellow with youthful hues. Fresh, fragrant jasmine, basil and grapefruit with tomato leaf and laurel on the nose, and a fresh, mineral palate.
Fiano is a Campanian native rather than a Sicilian one, but it has taken well to the west of the island, where it keeps more acidity than most white grapes manage in that heat. Crushed and destemmed, then cooled straight to 5 to 8 degrees and left on skins for four to six hours to draw aroma before pressing. Mandrarossa is the quality label of the Settesoli co-operative at Menfi.
The producer
Mandrarossa
View all Mandrarossa winesMandrarossa is the premium expression of Cantine Settesoli, one of Sicily's largest and most quality-focused growers, based in Menfi on the island's sun-drenched south-western coast. It has become a byword for characterful, well-made Sicilian wine that captures the warmth and vibrancy of its home.
Drawing on a remarkable diversity of vineyards near the Mediterranean, Mandrarossa champions both indigenous Sicilian varieties and international grapes. Cooling sea breezes and a long growing season give wines of ripe fruit balanced by welcome freshness, with sustainability a guiding principle across the estate.
The range is wonderfully broad, from crisp whites of Fiano, Grillo and Grecanico to aromatic Zibibbo, juicy Nero d'Avola and Frappato, and premium bottlings such as the old-vine Cartagho and single-terroir Terre di Sommacco. The golden Serapias passito from Pantelleria is a jewel to finish.
Vivid, generous and full of Sicilian sunshine, Mandrarossa offers exceptional character and value. Its wines are an inviting journey through one of the Mediterranean's most exciting wine islands.
