Unico Zelo is a playful Australian winery, making fun, reasonably-priced wines from mostly traditional Italian varieties. Their 2018 Jade & Jasper Fiano is a prime example. In the glass, the wine is filled with aromas of yellow apple, green pear, and this enigmatic earthy-autumn leaf note. In the mouth, the wine is bright and crunchy at first, with crisp yellow apply flavors abounding next to a touch of lemon. A creaminess follows the fruit with a touch of phenolic bitterness. A fun wine on its own or with food!
