The Story Behind the Bottle
Pecorino is a little-known white grape from Abruzzo, a region on Italy's eastern Adriatic coast. Why this variety isn't better known is a mystery – it offers lovely ripe apricot fruit and real character. This is a delightful white wine from Rino Santeusanio, who gained experience in South Africa, New Zealand and Argentina, before returning home to Abruzzo. He picked out premium grapes and cool-fermented them at the cellar to bring out all the juicy, fresh flavour of this variety. The name Pecorino comes from pecore, for Italian word for sheep. These animals love to guzzle on the ripe Pecorino grapes if given the chance! Chill this wine down and enjoy alongside roast chicken, creamy soups, grilled fish or vegetable risotto.
