Olives, nuts and aperitivo snacks

An aperitivo should open the appetite, not fill it. Both of these stay light and salt-friendly.


Bone-dry fortified wines, often oxidative or flor-aged, with nutty saline depth.

Saline, nutty character in the wine is a direct echo of almonds and olives — the reason Fino is the aperitivo wine par excellence.

Serve 7–13 °C

Tank-method sparkling: light, fruity, floral, made for drinking young.

Light, fresh, and undemanding — the point of an aperitivo is to open the appetite, not fill it.

Serve 6–9 °C
