92 Points - Vinous: "The 2019 Fiano di Avellino Ciro 906 takes its time to open in the glass, at first savory with hints of young peach and almond. Further coaxing brings a richness forward, coupled with notes of flowery undergrowth and gingery spice. It coasts across the palate with silken textures that are wonderfully contrasted by saline-mineral tones, as ripe orchard fruits settle upon the senses. The long and tension-filled finale buzzes with nervous energy, leaving hints of granny smith and zests of lemon to linger. The best is surely yet to come here; yet even today, the Ciro 906 is enjoyable on its intensity alone."
