Tasting Notes
A pure Pecorino from Abruzzo’s Val di Sangro, grown on clay soils and handled with a light touch. Given a short skin contact and fermented in neutral fibreglass, the wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered and without added sulphur. Bright and lively, it shows fresh citrus, a gentle texture and a clean mineral edge, keeping things crisp, energetic and easy to drink. - Aaron C
Abruzzo has a winemaking history stretching all the way back to the Etruscans in the sixth century BC, with plenty of ups and downs along the way. These days it turns out reliable, approachable whites and reds for everyday drinking, along with some genuinely complex, ageworthy wines at the top end. You'll find it in central Italy on the Adriatic coast, with Molise to the south, Marche to the north and Lazio to the west.
Its terroir is varied and shaped heavily by the Apennines, with vineyards near the coast enjoying a moderating maritime influence while those further inland see a much wider swing between day and night temperatures. Clay is the dominant soil throughout. Trebbiano leads the whites with Pecorino close behind, while Montepulciano is the flagship red.
