Pecorino Terre di Chieti IGP - 2022

Grown on high-elevation, cool-climate vineyards in the heart of the rugged Majella National Park, this Pecorino is aromatically complex with elderberry, white fruit, and pear. Dashes of Passerina and Malvasia, plus a short maceration, imbue it with freshness, intensity, and a lingering finish. Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections. Aromas of elderberry, ripe white fruit and hint of pear. Fresh intense with a long persistent finish.
