Pemo Pecorino is very fresh with bright and lively citrus acidity, notes of tropical fruits and a touch of minerality, which gives the wine a lovely balance.
Pecorino grapes are grown in the white wine zone of Chieti, on hillside slopes at about 300 meters above sea level. The yield is approximately 90 hl/ha. Pecorino is an early ripening variety, giving excellent mineral qualities and freshness - the grapes are hand-picked around the second week of September. Once de-steamed the grapes are left in the pneumatic press with dry ice for few hours, then softly pressed with a maximum pressure of 0.5 Atm. The fermentation is completed the wine is left of fine lees for at least 120 days.
Very versatile, this Pecorino suits everything from fish to soft, sharp cheeses.
