This Fiano is one half of Janare’s “F series,” the other being Falanghina (another lesser-known Italian white grape variety that’s well worth discovering). Accordingly, the label sports a stylized letter F. The wine itself is crisp and lively, with white grapefruit, lemon zest and mineral in abundance. Chill and sip as an aperitif or pair with seafood.

ITALY – RED WINE MARCHE VELENOSI SOLESTÀ SOLIMANDO ROSSO PICENO SUPERIORE 2023 DOC

FRIULI PUIATTI FRIULI PINOT GRIGIO 2024 DOC This wine has a bolder presence than Pinot Grigios from Friuli typically suggest. The greater depth is matched by the classic racy acidity. A sleek, elegant wine with notable peach tones. Pair with fish or summer salads. Light & Crisp 50315 (XD) 750 ml $23.95 1

Intense aromas of black fruit, tar, dried flowers and sandalwood lead to a full-bodied, concen trated and compact palate. Broad, ripe tannins support the dark fruit. Drink or hold [into early 2030s].
