Pecorino

Pecorino, an indigenous white grape variety hailing from central Italy, particularly the Marche and Abruzzo regions, captivates with its distinct characteristics and vibrant personality. Named after the sheep (pecora) that once grazed near its vines, Pecorino produces wines renowned for their crisp acidity, refreshing citrus flavors, and subtle minerality.

Pecorino wines often exhibit enticing aromas of white flowers, pear, peach, and aromatic herbs, reflecting the grape’s terroir-driven expression. With a medium body and lively acidity, Pecorino is a versatile companion to a variety of dishes, from seafood and salads to poultry and light pasta dishes.

Despite facing near-extinction in the mid-20th century, Pecorino has experienced a remarkable revival in recent years, captivating wine enthusiasts with its distinctive charm and potential for elegant expression, emblematic of Italy’s diverse viticultural landscape.
