Varietal

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.

Country

Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region

Marche

Marche, an Italian wine region on the Adriatic coast, is one of the world's most ancient wine regions. For thousands of years, vines have been cultivated in this beautiful and mountainous landscape, and the region has been influenced by the Pheonicians, the Lombards and the Romans, giving it a wine culture and identity quite unlike any other region of Italy. With a relatively high number of DOC and DOCG titles, Marche is home to many of Italy's finest wines, and is a region most readily associated with superb white wines. Indeed, the most common grape varietals grown in Marche are the Trebbiano and Verdicchio, which have been cultivated in vast amounts for white wine production in Marche for at least six hundred years, and which produce wines packed full of unique flavors associated with the region.

Winery Notes
