For no other reason that it is brilliant, try and get hold of a bottle of 2006 Fiano Mandrarossa.Sweet peach on the nose, with a little lemon creeping through, coupled to a palate of pencil lead, cape gooseberry and dried tangerine. The finish is lovely and minerally with a touch of petrol. Brilliant. 8/10
It won the 2007 International Wine Challenge 'Great Value White Wine' Gold medal, and even if it is not this one, you should try and get hold of a Fiano from a supermarket such as Waitrose. It's perfect for you if you don't want to go down the Pinot Grigio route.
You can get it from Luvians Bottleshop for £5.99 or 2 for £10 or you can get it from the Sussex Wine Company if you like wasting money and want to pay £6.95
