Shut The Gate For Love Fiano

Shut The Gate For Love Fiano 2024 is a bright, textural white from Shut The Gate Wines, sourced from Roger Clark’s Rosehill Vineyard in Boorowa, Hilltops. This is the producer’s first take on the classic southern Italian grape, delivered in an energetic cool-climate style that makes a compelling alternative to Chardonnay or Pinot Gris.

Plush tropical fruit and citrus lead the charge, with pear and poached apple notes emerging through honeycomb, ginger and cinnamon spice. A gentle grilled-nut savouriness adds complexity, while juicy acidity pulls everything into line. Shut the Gate For Love Fiano 2024 is layered and flavoursome, yet finishes wonderfully fresh.

Pour it with crispy-skinned chicken, chargrilled prawns, creamy pasta or pork cutlets with fennel and lemon. The wine’s bright acidity cuts through richer textures, while its savoury, softly rounded palate is superb alongside roasted vegetables and nutty cheeses. Serve lightly chilled to let the fruit, spice and texture properly shine.
