The 2025 Oliver’s Taranga Small Batch Fiano is a vibrant and textural McLaren Vale white wine crafted by renowned winemaker Corrina Wright, often referred to as the “Queen of Fiano.” The nose is highly aromatic and expressive, revealing pear skin, lemon pith and white peach layered with kaffir lime, fresh basil, elderflower and subtle nutty notes of cashew and pine nut.
On the palate, it is beautifully textured with creamy stone fruit flavours balanced by bright citrus acidity, savoury minerality and a refreshing saline edge. Hints of preserved lemon and herbs carry through to a long, zesty and food-friendly finish. The style is modern, lively and complex, combining richness with freshness and precision.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is one of Australia’s standout Fiano wines and a perfect choice for customers who enjoy textured Mediterranean whites with freshness and savoury complexity. Ideal with spicy Asian cuisine, grilled seafood, roast chicken or creamy cheeses. Drink now for maximum vibrancy or cellar over the next 5–8 years for added texture and savoury depth.
