2022 Fantini Calalenta Pecorino Terre di Chieti IGT, Abruzzo & Le Mache

Pecorino is a fairly rare variety, with only about 300 hectares planted in the Abruzzo and Le Marche regions. Its name derives from the fact that a bunch of Pecorino grapes was traditionally considered to have a similar shape to a sheep's head.

Straw yellow with greenish highlights. Aromas of white pulp fruit, especially pears, dominate. The palate displays balsamic notes that reveal the good quality of wood used.

Perfect with lobster, cream of vegetable soup and smoked fish, we also suggest it with roasted chicken.
