A crisp and fresh Pecorino from Abruzzo; lemon-green in colour with blossom and grapefruit aromas on the nose. The palate is dry and crisp with a zesty citrus acidity and notes of white peach, pear and green apples. The wine has a well-balanced structure supported by good acidity, with a long and persistent finish
The profile of Abruzzo, Molise and Apulia could have been drawn by a stylist to make Italy look like a masterpiece: the “heel” that makes the Italian “boot” unique. Elegant heels can turn sporty or bold ones can become romantic thanks to a detail that makes the difference. The heel of the Italian “boot” is made of three beautiful regions. Starting from L’Aquila, reaching Campobasso and arriving in Bari, we discover gentle hills that become wonderful beaches as we approach the sea. Here we can also explore ancient towers reminding us the splendour of the rich castles that once dominated these territories. The brand name “Tor del Colle” is a tribute to the magnificence of towers that from their highness could dominate the whole area. This brand aims to express the culture, the unique food tradition of the Italian “heel”, where wines have a distinctive, definite flavour as their territory.
The grapes are soft-pressed and the must obtained ferments for 15/20 days at a low controlled temperature, 12/14 °C, in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then stored at 18/20 °C in stainless steel tanks until the bottling time
It matches well with all dishes of fish, white meat and soups.
