94 points Decanter: "Luigi Maffini and his wife take a holistic approach to express the elegance of Fiano on chalky soil. A wine of great Campanian character: green apple, lemon leaves, coriander and wild fennel meld with tangerine and sweet citrus, with the distinct floral signature of young Fiano. Tingling and vibrant on the palate, with silky lushness. Drinking Window: 2025-2035. (Mar 2020)"

92 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "[$29 list] The 2018 Fiano Kratos shows a rich and alluring display, leading off with ripe peach and sweet floral tones, as hints of lime zest, sweet cream, and white smoke lift from the glass. On the palate, silky, nearly-oily textures envelope the senses in a coating of ripe stone fruits with subtle sweet spices, all backed by brisk acids as inner florals, hints of mango, and even a note of banana evolves toward the close. The finish is long, buzzing with energy, as citrus-infused minerals and resonating acids cut through its lingering, ripe fruits and make for a spicy finale. Wow! Drink: 2020-2026. (May 2020)"
