Noisy Ritual Fiano
Summary Noisy Ritual is the innovative, low-intervention wine project of Alex Byrne (with collaborators) in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, sourcing premium fruit from across the state (often Heathcote or similar for Fiano) and producing in the city for a fresh, expressive style. The Fiano is cold-soaked on skins for 5 days to maximize body and texture, fermented naturally, and bottled without heavy filtration or additives—resulting in a rich, fleshy white with tropical and stone fruit character. It's age-worthy yet delicious young, versatile with spicy foods, blue cheese, or as a standalone sipper.
