Elderflower and lemon, the two notes on Pasqua's own sheet. Then apple, pear and melon, which 183 of the 500 written Vivino reviews mention. Behind them sits a touch of honey and almond that Majestic's buyers pick out.

Palate

Medium-bodied and very dry, with fresh acidity kept on purpose. Pasqua holds the wine cold in steel to stop the second, softening fermentation. A short rest on its yeast gives it a little weight. The few hours the juice spends on the skins add texture, not colour.

Finish

Clean and moderate in length, ending on lemon and a faint bitter almond.

Wine fit score

How Pietrariccia scores for food, value and everyday drinking

Four scores out of ten. It rates highest with food, then for someone new to Italian wine, then as an everyday bottle, and well on value at £11 in a mixed six.

Best with food 8.5/10

Shellfish, fried starters, creamy pasta and fresh cheese all fit. Only red meat and hot chilli do not.

Best intro to this style 8.4/10

Dry, fresh and fruity, with nothing odd about it. A safe first Fiano at £11 to £13.

Best everyday bottle 8.2/10

At £11 in a mixed six, 13% and no oak, this is a weeknight white.

Best value 7.8/10

£11 to £13 for a single-grape Salento white from Pasqua that drinkers rate 3.8 on Vivino.

Best for an occasion 3.5/10

A good glass with dinner, but not a bottle that marks an event.

Best for cellar 1.2/10

No oak and a style built for freshness. Drink it within two or three years.

Scoring is rule-based and deterministic. The model and weightings are documented in our Wine Fit Score methodology.

Drink-now / hold guidance reflects general style cues for this wine, not a forecast for a specific bottle. Where vintage-level editorial notes exist, they appear above.

The disciplinare, the place, the label

Fiano at Manduria: Salento IGT, not Puglia

The label reads Fiano del Salento IGT and Pasqua's portfolio confirms it. The vines sit at Manduria, four miles from the Ionian coast, on limestone and clay. Majestic files it under Puglia, the region; Salento is the peninsula the IGT covers.

01

DOC, DOCG, IGT: what the badges mean

Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.

Salento is in the IGT tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.

Tracked from

Direction
Mostly cost down
Drivers
2 up / 3 down
Main factor
Made at scale by one of Verona's biggest houses
  1. 01

    Cold, careful winemaking to keep it fresh

    Cost up

    Pasqua ferments it for 20 days at 14 degrees, rests it on its yeast, then holds it cold in steel to stop the softening second fermentation. Chilling tanks for months costs energy and time.

  2. 02

    No oak, no cellar time

    Cost down

    The wine goes from steel to bottle within months of the harvest. Nothing waits in a barrel, so no money is tied up before it is sold.

  3. 03

    Made at scale by one of Verona's biggest houses

    Cost down

    Pasqua lists 204 wines on Vivino and has drawn 251,983 ratings there. Its Surani vineyards at Manduria feed a large bottling line, which spreads the fixed costs across a lot of wine.

  4. 04

    Majestic's mixed-six price

    Cost down

    Majestic sells it at £13.00 alone and £11.00 a bottle in any six. The shop's discount, not the winery, sets the low end of the price.

  5. 05

    UK duty and VAT

    Cost up

    A 13% wine carries about £2.99 of duty on the February 2026 rates, and VAT takes a fifth of the shelf price. Roughly £5.15 of the £13 is tax, and about £4.80 of the £11.

Pasqua ferments it for 20 days at 14 degrees, rests it on its yeast, then holds it cold in steel to stop the softening second fermentation. Chilling tanks for months costs energy and time.

Food Pairing

Dry, fresh and 13%: what fits Pietrariccia

Pasqua's own matches are spaghetti allo scoglio, linguine alle vongole and shellfish. Majestic says creamy, rich pasta. Vivino's list is shellfish, vegetarian dishes and starters.

Acidity matching Strong match

Shellfish pasta and mussels

Pasqua's own matches are spaghetti allo scoglio and linguine alle vongole. Shellfish is sweet and salty. A dry white with fresh acidity and no oak lets that sweetness through, and its lemon note does the job of a squeeze of citrus.

Try with: Fregula ai frutti di mare · Impepata di cozze · Cozze arraganate · Polpo alla pignata · More pairings →

Fat cutting Strong match

Fried starters

Fried food leaves oil on the palate, and this wine's acidity scrubs it away between bites. Its light honey note also sits well with the crisp, sweet edge of anything fried.

Try with: Arancini · Gnocco fritto · Pizza Fritta · Frittata di maccheroni · More pairings →

Body matching Good match

Creamy and rich pasta

Majestic recommends it with creamy, rich pasta. The wine is medium-bodied rather than thin, so it does not vanish under a creamy sauce, and its freshness keeps the plate from feeling heavy.

Try with: Pasta alla carbonara · Pasta Cacio e Pepe · Trofie al pesto · Risi e bisi · More pairings →

Aromatic bridge Good match

Fresh cheese, tomato and herbs

Vivino lists vegetarian dishes and starters for this wine. Its elderflower and citrus notes sit close to the fresh, green side of basil, tomato and young cheese, so the glass carries on what is on the plate.

Try with: Insalata Caprese · Torta pasqualina · Focaccia di Recco · Pappa al Pomodoro · More pairings →

Salt balance Good match

Oysters, prawns and smoked fish

Salt makes a dry white taste rounder and fruitier. This one has enough acidity to cut through smoked and potted fish and enough fruit to stand next to an oyster.

Try with: Oysters · Potted Shrimp · Scottish Smoked Salmon · Arbroath Smokies · More pairings →

Avoid Clash

Skip red meat and hot chilli

A dry, light white like this simply disappears next to steak or braised beef. Hot chilli does the reverse: it makes the wine taste thin and sour. Keep it for fish, vegetables and pasta.

Skip with: Fiorentina steak · Brasato al Barolo · Chicken madras · Szechuan beef · Pairing guide →

Drinking + cellar

Keeping Pietrariccia: drink it young

Serve it at 10 to 12 degrees, as Pasqua suggests, and drink it within two or three years of the harvest. There is no oak and nothing to wait for.

Common Questions

Fiano on its own, a southern Italian white grape. Pasqua grows it in its Surani vineyards at Manduria in Salento, on limestone and clay.

At Manduria, in the Salento peninsula of Puglia, about four miles from the Ionian coast according to Majestic. Vintus, Pasqua's US importer, dates the town's Greek settlement to 700 BC.

Elderflower and lemon, then apple, pear and melon, with a touch of honey and almond. It is very dry, medium-bodied and fresh. On Vivino 2,428 ratings average 3.8 out of 5.

Shellfish pasta such as spaghetti allo scoglio or linguine alle vongole, which is Pasqua's own suggestion. Majestic points at creamy pasta, and Vivino lists shellfish, vegetarian dishes and starters.

£13.00 a bottle at Majestic, or £11.00 a bottle in any mixed six. In the UK it is a Majestic exclusive.

Salento IGT. That is what the label and Pasqua's portfolio say. Majestic lists the region as Puglia, which is also right: Salento is the southern peninsula of Puglia.
