Pecorino is a grape that loves altitude; the strong temperature variations of the Abruzzo hills formidably enhance its aromatic profile.
To the eye, it is medium-intensity straw yellow with golden reflections. On the nose it is powerful, releasing floral notes, yellow fruit aromas and deep aromatic herb references, especially mint and thyme. On the palate it is savoury and impressive, always in balance between freshness and material depth.
Excellent with seafood starters and first courses, it also pairs perfectly with light dressings. Serving temperature: 8-10°C.
Vacuum pressing is carried out to extract exclusively the precious free-run must. This is followed by cold clarification and fermentation of the clear fraction only, conducted at low temperature to preserve its aromas.
Medium-textured clay soils. Training system: awning and espalier. Usually early harvest.
