Pecorino is a white grape variety native to the region Marche, that over time has spread to southern Italy. In Abruzzo, Pecorino has found excellent environmental conditions, essential for making quality wines. According to the legend, its name comes from the pastoral tradition: it was the wine of shepherds. Other bizarre theories, however, speculate that its bunches shape resembles a sheep’s head, or imagine sheep particularly fond of these sweet grapes. Its fruity notes are sumptuous and warm, with hints of yellow flowers. Some mineral, iodine and herbal notes such as thyme and marjoram can not be missed. After various researches, studies and attempts in vineyards as in the cellar, we managed to obtain a Pecorino wine characterized by a strong acidity and a wide structure, marked also by the fact these grapes in vineyards undergo a high temperature range.

Matchings: blue cheese, dried fruits, legumes and especially fish. There is nothing better than popping it for an aperitif overlooking the sea in our beautiful Abruzzo region. Not having it while you chill under a beach umbrella is impossible. Matched with peach and mint it is a guarantee, try it to believe. Pair it with summer fruit… it’s sangria party time!

Serving temperature: 8-10 degrees

The origin of the name “Pinot” comes from the French word “pin” “pino,” in Italian. The shape of its cluster reminds a small pine tree, a characteristic common to all “Pinot” wines. Although it is often vinified in white, we preferred a short maceration of the skins that give this wine its typical coppery color, also called “onion skin”. In addition to the coloring, this oenological choice of ours promotes a greater aromatic complexity improving the structure of this wine, while still maintaining a distinct flavor and good acidity, capable of balancing an alcoholic content that is difficult to find in white wines.

Matchings: because of its high alcohol content, we recommend it with seafood dishes, shellfish or cod, but also with woodland scents and thus small game, mushrooms, cheese and white meats. Enjoy it cold between spring and summer as a cool-down after a long day of hiking in the mountains, or at room temperature during the early autumn chill.

Serving temperature: 8-12 degrees
