Fiano di Avellino (grape variety)

Synonym for the grape variety Fiano; see there.

The white grape variety originates from Italy. Synonyms are Apiana, Apiano, Fiana, Fiano di Avellino, Fiore Mendillo, Foiano, Latina Bianca, Latina Bianca di Barletta, Latino, Latino Bianco and Santa Sofia. It should not be confused with the Minutolo variety (Fiano Aromatico, Fiore Mendillo) or Santa Sof ia, long considered identical, despite seemingly suggestive synonyms or morphological similarities. The parentage is unknown. A DNA analysis carried out in 2001 revealed that the Fiano Aromatico, which was assumed to be a variety, is independent and was therefore renamed to Minutolo renamed.
